Identification of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense in naturally infected dogs in Nigeria
Background Animal trypanosomosis is endemic in Nigeria, while the human disease caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense is rarely reported nowadays after efforts to bring it under control in the 20th century.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Structure of thioredoxin from Trypanosoma brucei brucei
The three‐dimensional structure of thioredoxin from Trypanosoma brucei brucei has been determined at 1.4 Å resolution. The overall structure is more similar to that of human thioredoxin than to any other thioredoxin structure. The most striking difference to other thioredoxins is the absence of a buried carboxylate behind the active site cysteines ...

Réponse du poulet nigérian local ( Gallus domesticus) aux trypanosomes
La réponse du poulet nigérian local aux souches de Trypanosoma brucei 8/18 et T. vivax Y58 a été recherchée. Le poulet local utilisé dans cette étude était sensible à T. brucei mais réfractaire à T. vivax (Y58) (une souche adaptée aux rongeurs).

Multilevel genomic constraints shape nuclear tRNA gene organization in plants
SUMMARY Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are essential components of the translation machinery. Their abundance and diversity shape decoding capacity as well as the efficiency and accuracy of protein synthesis. Because tRNA abundance is encoded in the genome through tDNA copy number, chromosomal organization, and cis‐regulatory sequences controlling transcription,

A series of 5‐nitroimidazole‐1,2,3‐triazole hybrids was synthesised and evaluated for antitrypanosomatid activity to assess their potential as treatments against leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis. No notable in vitro activity against Leishmania was detected.

Analysis of the proteinases of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
A method comprising enzyme separation by SDS-PAGE and subsequent use of peptidyl aminomethylcoumarins as substrates has been used to study proteinases of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. The application of this method has allowed investigation of the substrate specificities of individual proteinases in cell lysates without the need for enzyme

Pyridyl‐Imidazopyridine Derivatives Displaying Submicromolar Activity Against Trypanosoma cruzi
Previously reported pyridyl‐thiazoles and highly active imidazopyridines against Trypanosoma cruzi inspired the design of a new series of pyridyl‐substituted imidazopyridines. Among the synthesized compounds, 5h emerged as the most promising derivative, displaying potent trypanocidal activity (EC50 = 0.16 μM), excellent selectivity (SI > 1250), and ...
