Muscle cell - Wikipedia
A muscle cell, also known as a myocyte, is a mature contractile cell in the muscle of an animal. [1] In humans and other vertebrates there are three types: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac (cardiomyocytes). [2] A skeletal muscle cell is long and threadlike with many nuclei and is called a muscle fiber. [3]

Muscle Cells (Myocyte) - Physiopedia
Introduction. This article is about skeletal myocytes. Myocytes, sometimes called muscle fibers, form the bulk of muscle tissue. They are bound together by perimysium, a sheath of connective tissue, into bundles called fascicles, which are in turn bundled together to form muscle tissue.

Myocyte - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
A myocyte is defined as a cell that contains sarcomeres with contractile apparatus, mitochondria for energy production, sarcolemma with cell envelope, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and cytosol, all of which are essential for normal function and can lead to myocardial dysfunction if abnormal.
