Linajes de Trypanosoma cruzi en pacientes con enfermedad de Chagas y coinfección por VIH [PDF]
Introducción. Las poblaciones naturales de T. cruzi han sido clasificadas en seis linajes filogenéticos o unidades de tipificación discreta: T. cruzi I, IIa, IIb, IIc, IId y IIe, que pueden jugar un rol en el tropismo tisular y patogénesis de la ...

CpG and Interleukin-15 Synergize to Enhance IFN-γ Production by Activated CD8+ T Cells [PDF]
Interleukin-15 (IL-15) regulates the development and maintenance of memory CD8+ T cells. Paradoxically, we previously reported that IL-15 could enhance CD8+ T-cell responses to IL-12, a proinflammatory cytokine required for optimal priming of effector ...

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Trypanosoma cruzi Infection in an Indigenous Kariña Community in Eastern Venezuela [PDF]
We investigated the seroprevalence of Trypanosoma cruzi infection in an indigenous Kariña population in eastern Venezuela. A total of 175 serum samples were collected in the community of Piñantal during February 2009.

Reaching for the Holy Grail: insights from infection/cure models on the prospects for vaccines for Trypanosoma cruzi infection [PDF]
Prevention of Trypanosoma cruzi infection in mammals likely depends on either prevention of the invading trypomastigotes from infecting host cells or the rapid recognition and killing of the newly ...

ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound particles secreted by cells, playing crucial roles in intercellular communication. The composition of EVs can undergo changes in response to stress and disease conditions, making them excellent biomarker candidates.

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus
Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a

Fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4) is a cytosolic lipid chaperone predominantly expressed in adipocytes. It has been shown that Trypanosoma cruzi targets adipose tissues and resides in adipocytes. However, how T.
