A cytophotometric and karyometric study of the cardiac muscle cells of young rats exposed to intermittent high altitude hypoxia. 1985

A M Arefyeva, and V Mares, and B Ostádal, and W Y Brodsky

Thirty-day-old rats were exposed to intermittent high altitude in barochamber (7000 m, 4 h per day, 4 exposures) and number of mono- and binucleated myocytes as well as DNA content per nucleus were determined in the right ventricular myocardium. The data indicate enhancement of mitotic division of mono- and binuclear diploid cells in hypoxic animals. Simultaneously, an increase in mononuclear and binuclear tetraploid cells occurred; the latter is probably due to DNA synthesis not followed by mitosis of some binuclear diploid cells.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D000531 Altitude A vertical distance measured from a known level on the surface of a planet or other celestial body. Altitudes
