title: [Oxidative damage of mice erythrocytes infected with Plasmodium berghei].
abstract: By using the model of infection with plasmodium berghei in white mice the attempt was made to explain the oxidative damages of red blood cells as a cause for haemolysis. In addition to a diminished new formation of erythrocytes there was an increased cell lysis under the impact of infection. Without any changes of the Met-Hb-percentage and of Heinz bodies an increase of GSH and GSSG could be measured. The conclusion was drawn that a damage of red blood cells caused by oxidation may occur by changing the relation of reduced tripeptides to oxidised ones.
