SENA, Plínio Garcez de  and  TELES FILHO, Moysés. Histochemical aspects of the myenteric plexus in experimental Chagas disease. Arq. Neuro-Psiquiatr. [online]. 1967, vol.25, n.3, pp.209-213. ISSN 0004-282X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S0004-282X1967000300005.

In experimental Chagas disease of white rats the esterase activity was compared between the infected and the control animals. Few histologic changes were found at the Auerbach plexus. The marked decrease of the esterase activity, however, seems to show that in the infected animals this activity decreases even before hystologic lesions are evident.
