The effect of temperature increase on the development of Rhodnius prolixus and the course of Trypanosoma cruzi metacyclogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 The increase in the global land temperature, expected under predictions of climate change, can directly affect the transmission of some infectious diseases, including Chagas disease, an anthropozoonosis caused by Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by ...

The P2X7 Receptor and Its Relation to Neglected Tropical Diseases: Focusing on Chagas Disease
Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a neglected tropical disease (NTD) that can lead to severe cardiac complications, including chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy. While NTDs are caused by a variety of pathogens—such as protozoa, bacteria, viruses, and helminths, Chagas disease remains underexplored, particularly regarding host immune responses.

mSphere, 2016 Trypanosoma cruzi parasites causing Chagas disease are passed between mammals by the triatomine bug vector. Within the insect, T. cruzi epimastigote-stage cells replicate and progress through the increasingly nutrient-restricted digestive tract ...

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT The fungi Fusarium guttiforme and Phytophthora palmivora were cultivated in four different media (Potato Dextrose Agar, Czapek, rice, and ISP2) and co‐cultured to stimulate fungal interactions and enhance secondary metabolite production. Promising extracts were fractionated, yielding compounds such as the iron complex of fusaric acid (1 ...

Trypanosoma musculi:influence of uric acid onin vitroformation of metacyclic trypomastigotes
Parasitology, 1987 SUMMARYUric acid is the most important constituent in the urine of insects. Infective metacyclic forms of the stercorarian trypanosomes are produced in the rectum of their insect vector and are thus in contact with uric acid. Using a culture system which permitted the growth of the insect stages ofTrypanosoma musculi, we studied the influence of uric ...
