Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1967
The epithelium of the boa constrictor is shown to have five ultrastructurally distinct layers. These are a basal layer of relatively undifferentiated germinal cells and intermingled melanocytes; a differentiating layer of spinous cells, similar to mammalian spinous cells and containing specialized clear cells which may be in the process of maturation ...

Abstract A 22-year-old red-tailed boa constrictor, Boa constrictor constrictor, was evaluated for neurologic abnormalities including cervical weakness and right-sided optical and thermal blindness. Previous diagnostic testing of this individual had ruled out inclusion body disease of boids as a cause of the neurologic signs.

Porocephalus dominicana n.sp. from the Dominican boa (Constrictor constrictor nebulosus)
Systematic Parasitology, 1980A new pentastomid, Porocephalus dominicana, from the Dominican boa (Constrictor constrictor nebulosus) is described. It differs in most aspects of its gross morphology from the other described Porocephalus spp. but it is included within the genus because it possesses the key generic character, an accessory spine over the outer hook. The taxon should be

Red-tailed Boa (Boa constrictor)
This is the species account about the Red-tailed Boa (Boa constrictor), a chapter in the Reptiles of Ecuador book. This account summarizes novel as well as historical information (recognition, natural history, distribution, conservation, etymology, and relevant literature) about the species and provides maps and images to facilitate identification of ...Danna Duque-Torres +2 more

Boa constrictor or rattlesnake?
Nature, 1999During endocytosis, dynamin forms a spiral collar around the neck of budding vesicles, which are then pinched off. The dynamin ring is thought to change shape, and constrict, in response to GTP hydrolysis. But a study of dynamin mutants that cannot hydrolyse GTP shows that this is not the case, and means that we need to rethink the previous model.

Bone Demineralization in Captive Boas (Boa constrictor constrictor): Report on Three Cases
Journal of Herpetological Medicine and SurgeryAbstract Inadequate care may lead to various diseases in reptiles, such as metabolic bone diseases, especially nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism. Quantitative computed tomography can estimate bone mineral density and is considered an essential tool for diagnosing early demineralization processes.
