Karyotype of Rhodnius montenegrensis (Hemiptera, Triatominae)

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Research, 2015
The Triatominae subfamily comprises 6 tribes. The tribe Rhodniini comprises 2 genera and 22 nominal species. Rhodnius montenegrensis (Hemiptera, Triatominae) was recently described as evolutionarily related to R. robustus. Therefore, in order to contribute to karyosystematic study of the tribe Rhodniini, this report describes the number of chromosomes ...

Apoptosis: A Key Process That Trypanosoma cruzi Modulates as a Strategy to Perpetuate Infection

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Apoptosis is a crucial host defense mechanism because it can trigger the immune response and get rid of infected cells. These important goals, among others, are achieved through a fine‐tuned process that culminates in a quiet form of cell death. Apoptosis represents a hindrance for intracellular microorganisms that live inside cells. Nevertheless, they

Modelling the climatic suitability of Chagas disease vectors on a global scale

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The Triatominae are vectors for Trypanosoma cruzi, the aetiological agent of the neglected tropical Chagas disease. Their distribution stretches across Latin America, with some species occurring outside of the Americas.

Phylogenetic multi-locus codon models and molecular clocks reveal the monophyly of haematophagous reduviid bugs and their evolution at the formation of South America.

open access: yes, 2010
We previously constructed a single molecular clock to date insect evolution that remains a cornerstone within entomological dating. The insect clock predicts that triatomine bugs, the vectors of South American trypanosomiasis, originated with the ...

Monocyte‐derived extracellular vesicles, stimulated by Trypanosoma cruzi, enhance cellular invasion in vitro via activated TGF‐β1

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 13, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract During cell invasion, large Extracellular Vesicle (lEV) release from host cells was dose‐dependently triggered by Trypanosoma cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes (Mtr). This lEV release was inhibited when IP3‐mediated Ca2+ exit from the ER and further Ca2+ entry from plasma membrane channels was blocked, but whilst any store‐independent Ca2 ...

Vigilancia de la presencia de triatominos mediante gallineros en el sur de Jalisco, México

open access: yesBiomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2010
Introducción. En México, la enfermedad de Chagas es un problema de salud pública. Se han registrado, al menos, 30 especies de triatominos vectores, la mayoría con hábitos domésticos y tendencia a invadir las viviendas humanas. Objetivo.

First Report of Seropositivity to Trypanosoma cruzi in Mexican Afro‐Descendants from Guerrero and Oaxaca States

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Mexican Afro‐descendant is a population poorly studied in many aspects, between them the infectious diseases that they suffer. This population is mainly found in the country’s Pacific (Oaxaca and Guerrero states) and Atlantic (Veracruz) coast. In these regions, a diversity of triatomine vectors of the Chagas disease is found. Also, all the genotypes of

Deciphering morphology in Triatominae: The evolutionary signals

open access: yesActa Tropica, 2009
Many species of Triatominae show evidence for morphological plasticity. Frequent taxonomic questions arose from this variability leading to disputes about describing new subspecies, species or even genera. We suggest this phenotypic flexibility is primarily an intraspecific feature, but with potential for evolutionary changes.
