Treatment Success in Trypanosoma cruzi Infection Is Predicted by Early Changes in Serially Monitored Parasite-Specific T and B Cell Responses. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016 BACKGROUND:Chagas disease is the highest impact parasitic disease in Latin America. We have proposed that changes in Trypanosoma cruzi-specific immune responses might serve as surrogate indicators of treatment success.

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009 Although the genome of Trypanosoma cruzi has been completely sequenced, little is known about its population structure and evolution. Since 1999, two major evolutionary lineages presenting distinct epidemiological characteristics have been recognised: T.

, 2012 BACKGROUND: Trypanosoma cruzi marinkellei is a bat-associated parasite of the subgenus Schizotrypanum and it is regarded as a T. cruzi subspecies. Here we report a draft genome sequence of T. c. marinkellei and comparison with T. c. cruzi.Andersson, B., Cornelis J Marinkelle, Kevin M Tyler, Butler, Claire E, Messenger, L.A., Talavera-López, Carlos, Björn Andersson, Louisa A Messenger, Claire E Butler, Michael A Miles, Ochaya, S., Marinkelle, Cornelis J, Butler, Claire, Talavera-López, C., Carlos Talavera-López, Miles, M.A., Michael D Lewis, Ochaya, Stephen, Messenger, Louisa A, Butler, C.E., Stephen Ochaya, Franzén, Oscar, Oscar Franzén, Llewellyn, Martin S, Martin S Llewellyn, Tyler, K.M., Miles, Michael A, Lewis, M.D., Lewis, Michael D, Andersson, Björn, Franzén, O., Tyler, Kevin, Tyler, Kevin M, Llewellyn, M.S., Marinkelle, C.J., Tyler Kevin M, Messenger, LA, Franzen, O, Miles Michael A, Tyler, KM, Andersson Björn, Talavera-López Carlos, Ochaya Stephen, Miles, MA, Marinkelle Cornelis J, Lewis Michael D, Llewellyn Martin S, Franzén Oscar, Butler Claire E, Ochaya, S,, Messenger Louisa A, Talavera-Lopez, C, Lewis, MD, Llewellyn, MS, Marinkelle, CJ, Butler, CE +55 morecore +1 more sourcePolyfunctional T cell responses in children in early stages of chronic Trypanosoma cruzi infection contrast with monofunctional responses of long-term infected adults.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013 BackgroundAdults with chronic Trypanosoma cruzi exhibit a poorly functional T cell compartment, characterized by monofunctional (IFN-γ-only secreting) parasite-specific T cells and increased levels of terminally differentiated T cells.María C Albareda, Ana M De Rissio, Gonzalo Tomas, Alicia Serjan, María G Alvarez, Rodolfo Viotti, Laura E Fichera, Mónica I Esteva, Daniel Potente, Alejandro Armenti, Rick L Tarleton, Susana A Laucella +11 moredoaj +1 more sourceGenomic comparison of Trypanosoma conorhini and Trypanosoma rangeli to Trypanosoma cruzi strains of high and low virulence
BMC Genomics, 2018 Background Trypanosoma conorhini and Trypanosoma rangeli, like Trypanosoma cruzi, are kinetoplastid protist parasites of mammals displaying divergent hosts, geographic ranges and lifestyles. Largely nonpathogenic T. rangeli and T.Katie R Bradwell, Vishal N Koparde, Andrey V Matveyev, Myrna G Serrano, João M P Alves, Hardik Parikh, Bernice Huang, Vladimir Lee, Oneida Espinosa-Alvarez, Paola A Ortiz, André G Costa-Martins, Marta M G Teixeira, Gregory A Buck +12 moredoaj +1 more sourceAntibody Repertoires Identify β-Tubulin as a Host Protective Parasite Antigen in Mice Infected With Trypanosoma cruzi
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Few studies investigate the major protein antigens targeted by the antibody diversity of infected mice with Trypanosoma cruzi. To detect global IgG antibody specificities, sera from infected mice were immunoblotted against whole T. cruzi extracts.Fabricio Montalvão, Fabricio Montalvão, Danielle Oliveira Nascimento, Marise P.
