STRUCTURAL VARIABLITY OF LEUCOCYTE GENOME AND ARTERIAL CELLS IN HUMAN ATHEROSCLEROSIS

Abstract

The review is focused on current views on the structural variation of genome of somatic cells as components related to atherosclerosis. The original data presented on the variation spectrum of DNA areas copies in peripheral blood leucocytes and arterial cells in human atherosclerosis. The future directions sketched for the research on somatic cells genome variation with the aim for pathogenetics of multifactorial diseases.
