A Deep Insight Into the Sialotranscriptome of the Chagas Disease Vector, Panstrongylus megistus (Hemiptera: Heteroptera). [PDF]

J Med Entomol, 2015
Saliva of blood-sucking arthropods contains a complex cocktail of pharmacologically active compounds that assists feeding by counteracting their hosts' hemostatic and inflammatory reactions.

Histone acetylation and methylation marks in chromatin of Panstrongylus megistus (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) [PDF]

Acta Histochemica, 2018
Panstrongylus megistus, a potential vector of Chagas disease, currently occupies a wider geographic distribution in Brazil than Triatoma infestans, another member of the hemipteran Reduviidae family and a vector of the same disease. A small heterochromatic body (chromocenter) formed by the Y chromosome is evident in the somatic cells of P.

Changes in nuclear phenotypes following cold shock in Panstrongylus megistus (Burmeister) [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2000
The nuclear phenotypes of Malpighian tubule epithelial cells of 5th instar male nymphs of the blood-sucking insect Panstrongylus megistus were studied immediately after a short (1 h) cold shock at 0 degrees C, and 10 and 30 days later. The objective was to compare the responses to a cold shock with those known to occur after hyperthermia in order to ...

Evolutionary ecology of Chagas disease; what do we know and what do we need?

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 470-487, April 2018., 2018
Abstract The aetiological agent of Chagas disease, Trypanosoma cruzi, is a key human pathogen afflicting most populations of Latin America. This vectorborne parasite is transmitted by haematophageous triatomines, whose control by large‐scale insecticide spraying has been the main strategy to limit the impact of the disease for over 25 years.
