  • Title: Hydrolytic enzymes of rhesus placenta during Plasmodium cynomolgi infection: ultrastructural and biochemical studies.
    Author: Saxena N, Pandey VC, Saxena PN, Upadhyay S.
    Journal: Indian J Exp Biol; 1993 Jan; 31(1):54-6. PubMed ID: 8500817.
    Abstract:
    Placenta in monkey demonstrated altered pathophysiology after P cynomolgi infection. The electronmicroscopic observations showed slight complete focal necrosis of the placental tissue, besides alterations in total protein, phosphatases and proteinases. These changes in cellular constituents of placenta during malaria infection may be responsible for malfunctioning of the organ and in turn, abnormal development of foetus.
