Abstract
Disturbances of intracellular regeneration in cardiomyocytes (CMC) are demonstrated in rats kept for a prolonged period in the mountains. Th ese disturbances cause focal destruction and lysis of organelles. The spatial intracellular reorganization of CMC under these conditions is characterized by an increased volume and surface density of myofibrils and decreased volume density of mitochondria, agranular sarcoplasmic reticulum, and T-system.
