Metabolite-dependent regulation of gene expression in trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

, 2013
Mechanisms regulating gene expression in trypanosomatid protozoa differ significantly from those in other eukaryotes. Transcription of the genome appears to be more or less constitutive with the polyadenylation and trans-splicing of large polycistronic ...

HVEM and CD160: Regulators of Immunopathology During Malaria Blood-Stage

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
CD8+ T cells are key players during infection with the malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA). While they cannot provide protection against blood-stage parasites, they can cause immunopathology, thus leading to the severe manifestation of ...
