We performed the first integrative multiparametric analysis of plasma circulating cell‐free nucleic acids, including nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, as well as ribosomal, messenger, and micro‐RNAs, in a cohort of 139 healthy individuals. We focused on quantity, integrity, and DNA methylation using assays targeting highly repetitive DNA and highly ...

Unraveling the Differences of the Hydrolytic Activity of Trypanosoma cruzi trans-Sialidase and Trypanosoma rangeli Sialidase: A Quantum Mechanics–Molecular Mechanics Modeling Study [PDF]
Chagas’ disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis, is a lethal, chronic disease that currently affects more than 10 million people in Central and South America. The trans-sialidase from Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi, TcTS) is a crucial enzyme for the
