In Vitro Leishmanicidal Efficacy of Synthesized Arylidene Analogues of Glitazone
ABSTRACT Diabetes is a fast‐growing health issue in low‐ and middle‐income countries, with ~80% of diabetics living in the tropics and sub‐tropics. It is a deadly condition claiming the lives of millions of individuals annually, with no therapeutic treatment available to date. The management of diabetes is thus limited to symptomatic relief by glycemic

Spermatogenesis and nucleolar activity in Triatoma klugi (triatomine, Heteroptera) [PDF]
Triatoma klugi is a Chagas disease vector in the Rio Grande do Sul State. Triatominae chromosomes are holocentric and sex chromosomes segregation is post-reductional. In this paper we describe the karyotype of male T. klugi and a meiotic analysis including the nucleolar behavior during spermatogenesis.

RNAseq and differential expression analysis identified 15 salivary gland genes encoding secreted proteins with putative anti‐bacterial, anti‐fungal, cytolytic, digestive and immunosuppressive function. The three most highly transcribed genes were selected to study their functional importance by reverse genetics, using a non‐invasive approach of dsRNA ...

Abstract Introduction Over 300,000 people living in the United States are estimated to have Chagas disease, a condition for which mother to child transmission may occur and early diagnosis is essential to reduce Chagas‐related morbidity and mortality. This study evaluated positive Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) screening serology among maternal donors of
