Published: December 2001

Magnetic storm modulates morphological and functional state of the heart and the related systems. Changes in cardiomyocyte ultrastructure induced by changes in geomagnetic activity were studied in experiments on rabbits. We describe a possible mechanism underlying changes in cardiac activity in intact animals induced by geomagnetic perturbations. The most pronounced alterations of cardiomyocyte ultrastructure were observed during the major phase of magnetic storm.
