endomysium

Examples of endomysium in the following topics:

• Arrangement of Fascicles

  • Each individual fiber within a fascicle is surrounded by a thin connective layer termed the endomysium, which helps maintain close association between the muscle fiber and associated vascular and nervous systems.
  • Each fascicle is surrounded by another layer of connective tissue termed the endomysium.

• Muscle Tone

  • Connecting to the endomysium of a muscle fiber, muscle spindles are composed of nuclear bag fibers and nuclear chain fibers.

• Blood Flow in Skeletal Muscle

  • Skeletal muscle: 1] Bone, 2] Perimysium, 3] Blood vessel, 4] Muscle fiber, 5] Fascicle, 6] Endomysium, and 7] Epimysium Tendon.

• Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage

  • High tension in the contractile-elastic system of muscle results in structural damage to the muscle fiber and plasmalemma and its epimysium, perimysium, and endomysium.

• Muscle Development

  • These cells remain adjacent to a muscle fiber, situated between the sarcolemma and the endomysium (the connective tissue investment that divides the muscle fascicles into individual fibers).
