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

Journal 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 ...

Distribution and evolution of repeated sequences in genomes of Triatominae (Hemiptera-Reduviidae) inferred from genomic in situ hybridization. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The subfamily Triatominae, vectors of Chagas disease, comprises 140 species characterized by a highly homogeneous chromosome number. We analyzed the chromosomal distribution and evolution of repeated sequences in Triatominae genomes by Genomic in situ ...

'It is like a tomato stall where someone can pick what he likes': structure and practices of female sex work in Kampala, Uganda. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Effective interventions among female sex workers require a thorough knowledge of the context of local sex industries. We explore the organisation of female sex work in a low socio-economic setting in Kampala, Uganda.

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

Journal 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

Acta 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.

Ecoepidemiology of Chagas Disease in a Biological Corridor in Southeastern Mexico: A Promising Approach to Understand the Risk of Chagas Disease

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Ecoepidemiology is an emerging field that attempts to explain how biotic, environmental, and even social factors influence the dynamics of infectious diseases. Particularly in vector‐borne diseases, the study under this approach offers us an overview of the pathogens, vectors, and hosts that coexist in a given region and their ecological determinants ...

Morphometric characterization of Rhodnius pictipes Stål, 1872 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) eggs in Eastern Brazilian Amazon populations

Revista Chilena de Entomología
Triatomines are potential vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, and are prevalent in the Amazon region of Brazil. This study focuses on the detailed morphometry of Rhodnius pictipes eggs to enhance understanding of their ...

Cytokines Gene Expression on Macrophages Exposed to Triatoma Salivary Gland Extracts [PDF]

, 2018
Triatoma sanguisuga and Triatoma Indictiva are vectors of Chagas disease. These two vectors goes to the host and bites down to feed on blood, which is necessary for the egg laying process. The disease however is not spread through their bite, but through

Taxonomic and systematic analysis among triatomine bug species (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) from colonies of the Special Health Service of Araraquara (SESA), inferred from 16S rDNA mitocondrial sequences [PDF]

, 2008
Foram analisadas seqüências de nucleotídeos do gene 16S do rDNA mitocondrial em 14 populações de triatomíneos mantidos em colônias no insetário SESA de Araraquara- SP, comparando-as com seqüências do mesmo gene disponíveis no GenBank.
