Abstract An ultrastructural and morphometric investigation was made of cells from the right and left ventricles of young rats 4 days old during culture for 7 days, in order to study the morphological and stereological parameters of the mitochondria and myofibrils. The results of the morphometric measurements revealed the periodic character of structural changes in the mitochondria and myofibrils. The changes discovered must be regarded not as structural differentiation of the cells but rather as adaptation to the conditions of culture.
