title: Effect of helium-oxygen mixture on myocardiac mitochondria of the rat.
abstract: Ultrastructural and stereological analysis of mitochondria of myocardiac cells from rats was performed after 2-hour breathing of helium-oxygen mixture. The following changes were observed in the cells of experimental animals as compared with the control ones: swelling of mitochondria, increase of the mean volume fraction of these structures and decrease of axial ratio of mitochondria.
