Therapeutic Strategies against Leishmania and Trypanosoma
Human African trypanosomiasis (also known as sleeping sickness, with Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense as etiological agents), American trypanosomiasis (also known as Chagas disease, with Trypanosoma cruzi as the etiological

Galactose starvation in a bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei UDP-glucose 4'-epimerase conditional null mutant [PDF]
Galactose metabolism is essential for the survival of Trypanosoma brucei, the etiological agent of African sleeping sickness. T. brucei hexose transporters are unable to transport galactose, which is instead obtained through the epimerization of UDP ...

Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase B knockdown compromises Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream form infectivity. [PDF]
Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase is an enzyme involved in the non-oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway, and catalyzes the inter-conversion of D-ribose 5-phosphate and D-ribulose 5-phosphate.

Transport of -Aminoisobutyrate into Trypanosoma brucei brucei [PDF]
The uptake of alpha-aminoisobutyrate (AIB) by washed cell suspensions of bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei brucei has been shown to be an energy-dependent process. No metabolism of AIB was detected under conditions leading to a 100-fold accumulation of AIB within the organism. Kinetic studies revealed that AIB uptake involved two components; that

Wild chimpanzees are infected by Trypanosoma brucei
Although wild chimpanzees and other African great apes live in regions endemic for African sleeping sickness, very little is known about their trypanosome infections, mainly due to major difficulties in obtaining their blood samples.

The Antiprotozoal Activity of Papua New Guinea Propolis and Its Triterpenes
Profiling a propolis sample from Papua New Guinea (PNG) using high-resolution mass spectrometry indicated that it contained several triterpenoids. Further fractionation by column chromatography and medium-pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC) followed by

The exopolyphosphatase TbrPPX1 of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
Abstract Background Exopolyphosphatases and pyrophosphatases play important but still incompletely understood roles in energy metabolism, and also in other aspects of cell biology such as osmoregulation or signal transduction.
