DIMINUIÇÃO DA SOBREVIVÊNCIA DO Dipetalogaster maximus PELA INFECÇÃO DA CEPA Y DO Trypanosoma cruzi EM CONDIÇÕES DE JEJUM ABSOLUTO [PDF]
Estudaram-se aspectos da relacao interespecifica entre oDipetalogaster maximus e a cepa Y do Trypanosoma cruzi, atraves do cicloevolutivo e da resistencia ao jejum. Os triatomineos foram criados eseparados em grupos de 60 insetos para cada experimento. Num grupo,ninfas de 1° estadio de D. maximus foram infectadas no 10° dia apos aeclosao, com .a cepa Y

Pathogenicity of Evlachovaea sp (Hyphomycetes), a new species isolated from Triatoma sordida, in Chagas' disease vectors Patogenicidade de Evlachovaea sp (Hyphomycetes), uma nova espécie isolada de Triatoma sordida, para vetores da doença de Chagas [PDF]
Evlachovaea sp was tested on nymphs of 5 Triatoma spp 5 Rhodnius spp, Panstrongylus herreri and Dipetalogaster maximus at 25°C, 75% humidity and humidity >98%. Most species showed susceptibility to fungal infection at high humidity. Mortality was reduced

Thrombin Inhibitors from Different Animals [PDF]
Venous and arterial thromboembolic diseases are still the most frequent causes of death and disability in high‐income countries. Clinical anticoagulants are inhibitors of enzymes involved in the coagulation pathway, such as thrombin and factor Xa. Thrombin is a key enzyme of blood coagulation system, activating the platelets, converting the fibrinogen ...

Cultivation-independent methods reveal differences among bacterial gut microbiota in triatomine vectors of Chagas disease. [PDF]
Chagas disease is one of the most important endemic diseases of South and Central America. Its causative agent is the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, which is transmitted to humans by blood-feeding insects known as triatomine bugs.

Telomere length is heritable and genetically correlated with lifespan in a wild bird
Abstract Telomeres are protective caps at the end of eukaryotic chromosomes that shorten with age and in response to stressful or resource‐demanding conditions. Their length predicts individual health and lifespan across a wide range of animals, but whether the observed positive association between telomere length and lifespan is environmentally ...
