Abstrakt: | Objective: To carry out a comparative analysis of the morphology of the interventricular septum (IVS) myocardium in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and without cardiovascular pathology. Material and Methods: A study of myocardial biopsies of the IVS in children with HCM ( n =18, 1.2-17 years) and children without cardiovascular pathology ( n =11, 1-16 years) was carried out. The volume of interstitial tissue in the IVS myocardium was determined, a morphometric study of the size of cardiomyocytes (CMCs), the myofibrillogenesis level and the ploidy of CMCs was carried out, the ultrastructure of the CMCs was studied, and the localization of the gap junction protein, connexin43 (Cx43), was revealed by immunohistochemistry. Results: The proportion of interstitial tissue in the myocardium of children with HCM was 9-10% and did not differ from its proportion in the myocardium of children in the control group. The diameter of the CMCs of the IVS in children with HCM reached the limit of ontogenetic growth and exceeded the parameters of the control group (average 18.9±5.7 µm vs 9.3±4.4 µm). CMCs ploidy in children with HCM was 2 times higher than CMCs ploidy in control patients (5.3c vs 2.7c). In the myocardium of children with HCM, the assembly of myofibrils most actively occurred in small CMCs. At the ultrastructural level, signs of immaturity of the contractile apparatus and intercalated discs of the CMC in HCM were demonstrated. In the myocardium of children with HCM, Cx43-containing gap junctions were more often located on the lateral surfaces of the CMC than in the myocardium of the control group. Conclusion: In children with HCM, a morphological picture of an increase in the size of the CMCs and their ploidy during accelerated ontogenetic development was demonstrated in combination with ultrastructural signs of immaturity of the contractile apparatus and intercalated discs and the lack of growth of interstitial tissue of the IVS myocardium compared with patients in the control group. |
