Chagas disease reactivation in a heart transplant patient infected by domestic Trypanosoma cruzi discrete typing unit I (TcIDOM) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Trypanosoma cruzi, causative agent of Chagas disease, displays high intraspecific genetic diversity: six genetic lineages or discrete typing units (DTUs) are currently recognized, termed TcI through TcVI.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Cytokines Gene Expression on Macrophages Exposed to Triatoma Salivary Gland Extracts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Triatoma sanguisuga and Triatoma Indictiva are vectors of Chagas disease. These two vectors goes to the host and bites down to feed on blood, which is necessary for the egg laying process. The disease however is not spread through their bite, but through

Pupillometry in Chagas disease

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia, 2018
We investigated parasympathetic innervation abnormalities of the iris sphincter and ciliary muscles in chronic Chagas disease by measuring pupillary diameter and intraocular pressure.A group of 80 patients with Chagas disease was compared with 76 healthy individuals without chagasic infection.

Modified Neumann incision for implant placement in overdentures: Case series of a less invasive alternative

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Conventional envelope flap techniques for implant placement in edentulous mandibles are associated with greater postoperative morbidity, especially in elderly patients or those with anatomical limitations. Minimally invasive alternatives aim to preserve soft tissues and reduce complications, enhancing clinical predictability ...

Feeding and defecation behavior of Triatoma rubida (Uhler, 1894) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) under laboratory conditions, and its potential role as a vector of chagas disease in Arizona, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Chagas disease is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which is transmitted to humans by blood-sucking triatomine insects. This disease is endemic throughout Mexico and Central and South America, but only a few autochthonous cases have been reported

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

In Vitro Impact of Triatomine Salivary Glands Extracts Introduced to Endothelial Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Chagas Disease (AKA Trypanosomiasis) is caused by biting/feeding behavior from the arthropod vector Triatoma (subfamily of Reduviidae family), that house the endoparasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which can then be passed to human and mammalian hosts (Schmidt ...
