Question
Chapter 23, Problem 8CT
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The side effects of erythropoietin abuse that reduce exercise stamina.
Introduction:
The erythropoietin is a hormone that stimulates the development of myeloid stem cells into the erythrocytes (red blood cells). This hormone is secreted by the endocrine cells that are present in the kidney.

One medication used in treating COVID patients who have been placed on mechanical ventilators is Vecuronium, an acetylchone antagonist at skeletal muscle neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). Vecuronium is used on sedated patients to provide skeletal muscle paralysis, which allows the mechanical ventilator to work without the patient’s diaphragm contracting on its own and potentially working against the ventilator.
Please do two things:
Explain the way in which the NMJ would cause skeletal muscle contraction in the absence of the medication. Start by describing the mechanism of neurotransmitter release in the presynaptic cell and stop when the first crossbridge cycle is complete.
Explain the specific way in which the medication impacts the functionality of the NMJ and skeletal muscle contraction.
Please make sure to include
1.NT release
2.AP
3.Calcium release/binding
4.Crossbridge cycling
5.Med impact
When given an image of a cardiac contractile cell, such as the one below, describe
the steps that occur during excitation-contraction coupling (the "before step 1" step
show with the squiggly red arrow below), contraction (steps 1-6 below) AND
relaxation (steps 7-10 belowl). Be sure to fully describe the role of Ca¹² ATPase and
Na+Ca+2 exchanger (NCX) in steps 9 and 101

Start by defining RER and explain how and why the resting value is established (think back to bioenergetics). Next, explain how and WHY (again, this requires an understanding of bioenergetics) RER changes as exercise intensity is increased (think VT and RCP). Hints: consider the points where the production of a gas increases drastically and why this occurs. Furthermore, consider that VT is often used to approximate AT. Also keep in mind the endogenous buffering systems.
