Resumen:
The effect of Trypanosoma cruzi on turnover of trophoblast were analyzed in chorionic villi denuded of its syncitiotrophoblast (STB). CTB proliferation was affected by T. cruzi, and this effect was more pronounced by congenital strain of the parasite. These data suggest that trophoblast turn over is altered by parasite and this process may account for the congenital transmission and the low bith weigth associated to Congenital Chagas Disease.
