Antigenic variation in the African trypanosome: molecular mechanisms and phenotypic complexity [PDF]
, 2009 Antigenic variation is an immune evasion strategy that has evolved in viral, bacterial and protistan pathogens. In the African trypanosome this involves stochastic switches in the composition of a variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) coat, using a massive ...

Immunoelectrophoretic comparison of Trypanosoma vespertilionis and Trypanosoma cruzi.
Revista de biologia tropical, 1971 Immunoelectrophoretically, T. vespertilionis showed five of seven antigenic fractions found with T. cruzi antigen, indicating a close similarity between these two species. An antigen made of L. braziliensis promastigotes did not give any precipitation band against T. cruzi antiserum.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.Ethanolic extracts from leaves, stems, and roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. ex Engl. were evaluated for phytochemical composition and biological activities. The extracts exhibited antioxidant, photoprotective, and antimicrobial activity, without hemolytic effects or cytotoxicity at active concentrations. Syringic acid, epicatechin, and rutin were

Tracking autophagy during proliferation and differentiation of trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
, 2014 Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent degradation mechanism that sequesters target cargo into autophagosomal vesicles. The Trypanosoma brucei genome contains apparent orthologues of several autophagy-related proteins including an ATG8 family. These ubiquitin-

Helminths as architects of trained tolerance: implications for human health
Clinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 3, 2026.Abstract Helminths infect nearly 2 billion people worldwide and are a major cause of chronic morbidity in low‐resource regions. Unlike bacterial and viral pathogens that elicit protective memory, helminths actively remodel host immunity to enable their years‐long persistence and reinfection.

Oxidative costs of migration: infections as an added burden
Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.There is increasing evidence that over‐production of reactive species (RS) constitutes a significant physiological cost for migrating birds. The current view entails that RS during migration originate primarily from increased metabolic activity associated with prolonged flights and refueling.
