Spatial epidemiology and adaptive targeted sampling to manage the Chagas disease vector Triatoma dimidiata [PDF]

, 2021
Widespread application of insecticide remains the primary form of control for Chagas disease in Central America, despite only temporarily reducing domestic levels of the endemic vector Triatoma dimidiata and having little long-term impact. Recently, an approach emphasizing community feedback and housing improvements has been shown to yield lasting ...

Plasma Levels of Matrix Metalloproteinases 2 and 9 in Patients with Chronic Chagas Heart Disease and Systemic Arterial Hypertension: Correlation with TGF‐Beta Plasma Levels

Cardiology Research and Practice, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. Chronic Chagas heart disease (CCHD) and systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) frequently coexists in areas where Chagas disease is endemic. The effects of the association of both conditions (CCHD‐SAH) on the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling are unknown. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) 2 and 9 are involved in ECM remodeling.

Current review of isoxazoline ectoparasiticides used in veterinary medicine

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 1-15, January 2022., 2022
Abstract The isoxazolines are a novel class of ectoparasiticides with potent inhibitory activity on glutamate‐ and gamma‐aminobutyric acid‐gated chloride channel located in nervous system of invertebrates. In recent years, studies have been performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of isoxazolines against various types of ectoparasites, including ...

Generation of a humanized FXII knock‐in mouse—A powerful model system to test novel anti‐thrombotic agents

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, Volume 19, Issue 11, Page 2835-2840, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Effective inhibition of thrombosis without generating bleeding risks is a major challenge in medicine. Accumulating evidence suggests that this can be achieved by inhibition of coagulation factor XII (FXII), as either its knock‐out or inhibition in animal models efficiently reduced thrombosis without affecting normal hemostasis ...

Comparison of feeding and defecation patterns between fifth-instar nymphs of Triatoma patagonica (Del Ponte, 1929) and Triatoma infestans (Klug, 1934) under laboratory conditions Comparação dos padrões alimentar e de defecação em ninfas de quinto estádio de Triatoma patagonica (Del Ponte, 1929) e Triatoma infestans (Klug, 1934), em condições de laboratório

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2008
Among the vectors of Chagas disease, Triatoma patagonica is a species in the process of adaptation to the human environment. However, its vector competence is not well known.

Identification of salivary proteins in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci by transcriptomic and LC–MS/MS analyses

Insect Science, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1369-1381, October 2021., 2021
Graphical Abstract The gene/protein repertoires of Bemisia tabaci salivary glands and secreted saliva were characterized by transcriptomic and LC–MS/MS analyses. A total of 698 salivary gland‐enriched unigenes and 171 salivary proteins were identified.

Residual effect of lambdacyhalothrin on Triatoma infestans [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1995
Insecticidal residual effect and triatomine infestation rates in houses of a community fumigated with lambdcyhalothrin (Icon) are reported. No mortality was observed in 5th-instar Triatoma infestans nymphs in 72-hr exposure test on three different surfaces, one month after fumigation for a dose of 31.5 mg am/m2.

Rondonin: antimicrobial properties and mechanism of action

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 2541-2559, September 2021., 2021
Rondonin's mechanism of action suggests yeast DNA/RNA binding, as it does not cause membrane disturbance. It acts synergistically with gomesin. It has superior action at pH 4 ˜ 5, and antiviral activity was detected against RNA viruses. This is the first report of an arthropod hemocyanin fragment with activity against human viruses.
