[Lipofuscin granule accumulation in the area of an experimental myocardial infarct in young animals].
The process of repairing the myocardium ischemized areas was studied in young rabbits. On the 14th day after operation lipofuscin granules were found to accumulate in large quantities in the myocardial infarction area. Their luminescent spectral characteristics were identical to those of lipofuscin granules of old people. Accumulation of lipofuscin in ischemized areas of the young animal heart indicates an active metabolic role played by lipofuscin in post-infarction normalization of myocardium tissue functioning.
