From: Parasite accumulation in placenta of non-immune baboons during Plasmodium knowlesi infection

Figure 4

Photomicrograph showing placental tissue of H&E-stained placental biopsies. Placental tissue from P. knowlesi-infected baboon (A) is described by infiltration of parasitized red blood cells (broken arrow), inflammatory cells (thick arrow) and non-parasitized erythrocytes (thin arrow) compared to tissue from non-infected baboon (B). The volume of in filtered red blood cell increases in the baboon placenta following P. knowlesi infection.
