Cardiac Muscle Electron Micrograph
Electron micrograph of parts of three cat cardiac muscle fibers and an adjacent capillary in longitudinal section. This is a historic (1969) EM showing key features in cardiac muscle ultrastructure. Only the intercalated disc and some cross-striations can typically be seen in the light microscope histology slides.
Bottom - The 2 cardiomyocytes (cell 1 and cell 2) and capillary (red) are labeled.
Top - 2 contractile units (sarcomere) are shown by white arrows. The A and I bands, shown by black arrows, are the regions visible by light microscope as cross-striations.
- In D - Intercalated disc, the two lower cells are joined end to end by a typical steplike intercalated disc.
- Mt - Rows of mitochondria appear to divide the contractile substance into myofibril-like units but, unlike the true myofibrils of skeletal muscle, these branch and rejoin and are quite variable in width.
- Lp - Lipid droplets somewhat distorted in specimen preparation are found between the ends of the mitochondria.
- Cap - Capillary.
