Abstract
The review analyzes literature data on structural changes in the heart of patients with vibration disease, as detected by echocardiographic methods. Particularly, it highlights concentric remodeling of the left ventricle chambers and disturbances in diastolic function. The review also discusses a 1.2-fold decrease in heart structure intensity compared to healthy individuals (p 0.05). Furthermore, it examines changes in morphometric and bioenergetic parameters of cardiomyocytes under different experimental vibration modes (7 and 56 sessions at a frequency of 8 Hz), confirming the disruptions in the relationship between the spatial configuration of the heart cavities, contractile ability, and energy supply potential. Loss of cardiac myofibrils represents the transition from myocardial hypertrophy to decompensation, accompanied by an increase in degenerative (dystrophic) signs such as the loss of sarcomeres in cardiomyocytes. Understanding these pathological (morphological) processes requires consideration of various mediators that regulate cell metabolism, proliferation, growth, and survival, including stromal interaction molecule, calcium ATPase of the endo(sarco)plasmic reticulum, inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate receptor, protein that forms CRAC channels, and transient receptor potential canonical. The degradation system of the extracellular matrix, including matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors, plays a crucial role in structural cardiac remodeling. This system regulates the rate of mRNA synthesis on the DNA matrix by binding to specific DNA regions that control cardiac nutrition and plasticity. The review suggests that these findings can help explain some patterns of cardiac remodeling development in patients with vibration disease and determine the direction of pathogenetically based therapy. This therapy should consider not only the vibration-protective effect of drugs but also their ability to inhibit and regress myocardial remodeling.
