Abstract
An increase in the ploidy of cardiomyocytes (CMCs) determines the potential for their hypertrophic growth. We analyzed the changes in CMC ploidy and size of the interventricular septum in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and tetralogy of Fallot (TF). The ploidy of CMCs in children and adult patients with HCM and children with TF was 1.5-2-fold higher than in individuals without cardiovascular pathology, and it did not change with age. The size of the CMCs was also larger by 1.3-2 times in patients with HCM and TF, compared to the control groups. However, the increase in CMCs size was more significant in HCM than in TF. The proportion of multinucleated CMCs was significantly lower in patients with HCM compared to controls and was by almost 2 times higher in patients with TF. Thus, myocardial hypertrophy in HCM is mainly due to the polyploidy of mononucleated CMCs, whereas in TF, the proportion of multinucleated CMCs increases.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine presents original peer reviewed research papers and brief reports on priority new research results in physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, oncology, etc. Novel trends in science are covered in new sections of the journal - Biogerontology and Human Ecology - that first appeared in 2005.
World scientific interest in stem cells prompted inclusion into Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine a quarterly scientific journal Cell Technologies in Biology and Medicine (a new Russian Academy of Medical Sciences publication since 2005). It publishes only original papers from the leading research institutions on molecular biology of stem and progenitor cells, stem cell as the basis of gene therapy, molecular language of cell-to-cell communication, cytokines, chemokines, growth and other factors, pilot projects on clinical use of stem and progenitor cells.
The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.
