Characterization of placental cholinesterases and activityinduction associated to environmental organophosphateexposure

Sanchez, Susana; Vera, Berta; Montagna, Cristina; Magnarelli, Gladis (ElsevierBoard, )

Although non-innervated, the placenta contains both cholinesterases (ChEs), butyryl-cholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE). These enzymes are well-known fortheir multiple molecular forms. In a first approach, ...
Plasma cholinesterase and carboxylesterase activities and nuclear and mitochondrial lipid composition of human placenta associated with maternal exposure to pesticides

Vera, Berta; Santa Cruz, Silvia; Magnarelli, Gladis (ElsevierBoard, )

Blood cholinesterases and tissue carboxylesterases (CEs) are sensitive indicators of environmental organophosphate pesticides (OPs) exposure. The aim of this pilot study was to assess the impact of OP exposure on placental ...
