title: Apoptosis of cardiomyocytes as extreme manifestation of regeneration and plastic insufficiency of myocardium.
abstract: Alkaline dissociation of the myocardium from rats with modeled anthracycline cardiomyopathy revealed decreased absolute number of cardiomyocytes, disturbances in their intracellular regeneration, although no sings of necrosis were observed. Regeneration and plastic insufficiency of the myocardium due to structural changes in the nuclei and disturbances in myofibril reproduction resulting from selective suppression of synthesis of contractile proteins in the cardiomyocytes leads to the death of up to 30% cardiomyocytes.
