One of important characteristics of the cell is the state of chromatin in cell nucleus
The increase of portion of heterochromatin in cell nucleus is a sign of decrease of processes of RNA synthesis, or in other words, it is a sign of partial inactivation of the cell nucleus
Summary
In his famous work “Cell Pathology” Rudolf Virchow outlined that the pathology of organism begins as pathology of cells [1]. One of important characteristics of the cell is the state of chromatin in cell nucleus. Chromatin is a complex of DNA with nuclear proteins. It may be divided in two forms: a dense, low-activity state (heterochromatin) and a diffused, active state (euchromatin) [2]. The increase of portion of heterochromatin in cell nucleus is a sign of decrease of processes of RNA synthesis, or in other words, it is a sign of partial inactivation of the cell nucleus. Some results demonstrating the role of chromatin rearrangements in pathology and sport medicine are presented
