Changes in ultrastructure, mitochondrial respiration and enzyme activities of rat myocardium were studied during progressive dietary thiamine depletion. Pronounced changes in mitochondrial fine structure and enlargement in size and increase in number were seen as early as 1 week. By the 5th week on thiamine-devoid diet the mitochondria were further enlarged, and the cristae were reduced in number and irregularly oriented.
