title: [Histologic organization of the myocardium of the rat during hypokinesia (stereologic study)].
abstract: For 30 days Wistar rats have been kept under conditions of hypokinesia. Using stereological methods, the volume and surface density of muscle fibers, microcirculatory bed and connective tissue components have been defined, and volumetric and surface--volume ratios of parenchymal and stromal structures have been calculated. Intracellular stereological parameters of the cardiac myocytes have been studied. Three-dimensional parameters in the parenchymatous-stromal interrelations of the atrophying myocardium accompanied with a deep rearrangement of the intracellular architectonics have been determined, as well as certain destructive changes of the cardiac myocyte ultrastructures. Such a treatment as a decreased functional loading is demonstrated to be the cause of cardiomyocytic lesions.
