A hypothetical scheme illustrating the changes in the f-SatIII content during human life. HC: healthy individual. During the aging the content of f-SatIII usually increases. Patient SZ-1: deletion of the genome regions containing f-SatIII (low repeat content). During the aging the content of f-SatIII increases. Patient SZ-2: normal f-SatIII content in the genome; during the aging the content of the repeat decreases. Patient SZ-3 [H-SZ (M+)]: normal f-SatIII content in the genome at the beginning of embryogenesis. Hypoxia and OCs stimulate an increase in repeat content. During the aging the content of the repeat decreases.
