| Description | While cells in other multicellular organisms have limited functional abilities, the muscle cells and their intracellular components in human subjects are specialized in physiological contraction, relaxation and locomotion. Lack of these functions could be due to any pathological change in the intracellular organelles, which may lead to myopathic or neuropathic abnormalities. Because myofibrils are the main functional unit of each muscle, their structural damage may cause several myopathic diseases. In this chapter, the reader learns the basic principles of muscle histology, which will help in understanding the pathogenetic mechanism of most neuromuscular diseases.
