Abstract excerpt
Variability of C-structural heterochromatin segments in chromosome 1,9 and 16 has been studied in lymphocyte cultures of peripheral blood taken from the patients with the hypertrophy (HC) and dilatate (DC) forms of cardiomiopathy and their 1st degree relatives (32 individuals, in total). 10 healthy individuals composed the control group. C-segments were sorted according to Patil and Lubs: a<0.5 x 16p; b>0.5-1 x...
