title: Enzymatic activity of peripheral blood erythrocytes in pregnant women with exacerbation of herpesvirus infection.
abstract: Enzymatic activity of the peripheral blood erythrocytes was studied in pregnant women after exacerbation of herpesvirus infection during the third trimester. Herpetic infection suppressed ATP synthesis and reduced the activities of glutathione reductase and glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes. These shifts were paralleled by lesser intensity of SOD reaction, normally suppressing LPO processes in erythrocyte membranes.
