Abstract


This study was concerned with the activity measurement of some enzymes in nucleotides pathway in placentae of infected pregnant women with toxoplasmosis. These enzymes were adenosine deaminase (ADA), cytidine deaminase (CDA), xanthin oxidase (XO), alkaline and acidic deoxy ribonuclease (DNase) and ribonuclease (Rnase). The study included (32) specimens from placentae of aborted women [24 were infected with toxoplasmosis, 8 were non-infected as control group. The infected placentae from (1-3),(3-6),(6-9) months of pregnancy] attending AL-Salam Teaching Hospital in Nineveh Governorate. For the placentae of infected pregnant women, the results showed a significant increase at (p ≤ 0.05) in activities of ADA, CDA, XO, and alkaline DNase during the three period of pregnancy, whereas the activity of acidic DNase decreased in all periods of pregnancy in addition, the result of the activity of RNase during the diffrent months of pregnancy indicate that there is a non-significant changes when compared with noninfected placentae as a control group.
