Cardiac striated muscle tissue

Cardiac striated muscle tissue

cells that make up the striated muscle tissue are called cardiac myocytes , have branched shape and size of 85-100 uM and 15 uM in length and in width, have striae transverse very well visible (as in striated muscle skeletal) and a central core and very obvious (as in the smooth muscle tissue). A peculiar feature of the cardiac muscle tissue is the presence of specialized devices for the junction between cell and cell: the intercalated disks . There are also "gap junctions" that allow you to electrically couple the myocytes allowing them a simultaneous contraction.
