DNA Vaccine Treatment in Dogs Experimentally Infected with Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Chagas disease is a chronic and potentially lethal disorder caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, and an effective treatment has not been developed for chronic Chagas disease. The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a therapeutic DNA vaccine containing T.

Regulation of a Trehalose-Specific Facilitated Transporter (TRET) by Insulin and Adipokinetic Hormone in Rhodnius prolixus, a Vector of Chagas Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Using the blood-sucking kissing bug, Rhodnius prolixus as an experimental model, we have studied the involvement of insulin-like peptides (ILPs) and adipokinetic hormone (AKH) signaling in carbohydrate metabolism, focusing on the regulation of the ...

Oviposition in the blood-sucking insect Rhodnius prolixus is modulated by host odors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Triatomine bugs are blood-sucking insects, vectors of Chagas disease. Despite their importance, their oviposition behavior has received relatively little attention. Some triatomines including Rhodnius prolixus stick their eggs to a substrate.

Trends in taxonomy of Triatomini (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae): reproductive compatibility reinforces the synonymization of Meccus Stål, 1859 with Triatoma Laporte, 1832

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Meccus' taxonomy has been quite complex since the first species of this genus was described by Burmeister in 1835 as Conorhinus phyllosoma. In 1859 the species was transferred to the genus Meccus and in 1930 to Triatoma. However, in the twentieth century,

Formal Assignation of the Kissing Bug Triatoma lecticularia (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae) to the Genus Paratriatoma

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Simple Summary The genus Paratriatoma is closely related to the paraphyletic genus Triatoma—the most diverse and relevant in the epidemiology of Chagas disease. Molecular phylogenetic treatments consistently place the species Triatoma lecticularia (Stål,
