The Functions of Cytokines in the Cardiac Immunopathogenesis of Chagas Disease

Pathogens
Chagas disease is a complex zoonosis. Clinically, it presents in two distinct phases, acute and chronic. The ability of patients to respond to Trypanosoma cruzi infection depends on the balance between inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses, in ...
