DEFORMABILITY OF ERYTHROCYTES IN PERIPHERAL BLOOD OF PREGNANT WOMEN DURING EXACERBATION OF HERPES-VIRUS INFECTION IN THE THIRD TRIMESTER OF GESTATION
We studied the factors acting on the erythrocytes of the peripheral blood of pregnant women during exacerbation of herpes-virus infection. The data obtained suggest that viral infection changes the frame properties of proteins of erythrocyte membranes, which causes deformation of erythrocytes, contributing to the formation of tissue hypoxia.
Keywords: pregnancy, deformability, erythrocyte membrane.
