Abstract

Information analysis of the intracellular reorganization occurring in the cardiomyocytes of Wistar rats is performed after total hypothermia and total hyperthermia. It is demonstrated that the structural and relative entropies decrease and the redundancy coefficient increases after total hypothermia, indicating a reduction in the structural diversity of cardiac myocytes and the formation of a new stable morphofunctional state of these cells. There are no significant changes in the information characteristics of cardiomyocytes after a single total hyperthermia.
