Skeletal muscle, TEM C016 / 5369
Skeletal muscle. Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a cross section through human skeletal (striated) muscle. Blocks of muscle (lighter grey) are surrounded by connective tissue (black). Filaments of the proteins actin and myosin (tiny dots) form the muscle myofibrils, which are enclosed by sarcoplasmic reticulum. The actin and myosin filaments can slide over one another, allowing the muscle to contract. Mitochondria (dark grey ovals) provide the large amounts of energy required by skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is under the conscious control of the brain

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a cross section of human skeletal muscle, revealing its intricate and awe-inspiring structure. The image, taken using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), offers a glimpse into the microscopic world of our muscular system. In this monochrome masterpiece, blocks of skeletal muscle are prominently displayed in lighter grey tones, surrounded by a network of connective tissue represented in black. Delicate filaments composed of actin and myosin proteins can be observed as tiny dots forming the muscle myofibrils. These myofibrils are enclosed by sarcoplasmic reticulum, emphasizing their importance in facilitating muscle contraction. The photograph also highlights the presence of mitochondria - dark grey ovals scattered throughout the image. These organelles play a crucial role in providing the substantial energy required for skeletal muscles to function optimally. It is fascinating to note that skeletal muscles are under conscious control by our brain, enabling us to perform voluntary movements with precision and coordination. This biological marvel exemplifies both health and normalcy within our anatomy. Captured by P. Navarro, R. Bick, and B. Poindexter from UT Medical School/Science Photo Library, this histological masterpiece serves as a testament to the wonders hidden within our bodies' fibers. It invites contemplation on the complexity and beauty inherent in even the smallest units that make up our musculoskeletal system.
