Multiple evolutionary origins of Trypanosoma evansi in Kenya.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Trypanosoma evansi is the parasite causing surra, a form of trypanosomiasis in camels and other livestock, and a serious economic burden in Kenya and many other parts of the world.

Hypoxanthine uptake through a purine-selective nucleobase transporter in Trypanosoma brucei brucei procyclic cells is driven by protonmotive force.

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1997
The mechanism of purine nucleobase transport in procyclic cells of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei brucei was investigated. Hypoxanthine uptake at 22 degrees C was rapid and saturable, exhibiting an apparent Km of 9.3 +/- 2.0 microM and a Vmax ...

Ciliary IFT‐B Transportation Plays an Important Role in Human Endometrial Receptivity Establishment and is Disrupted in Recurrent Implantation Failure Patients

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Our results suggested that mitochondria‐accelerated motile cilia intraflagellar transport may be involved in endometrial microenvironment establishment. ABSTRACT The lack of accurate understanding of cellular physiology and pathophysiology during the WOI constitutes the major obstacle to correct diagnosis and treatment for patients with recurrent ...

The individual components of commercial isometamidium do not possess stronger trypanocidal activity than the mixture, nor bypass isometamidium resistance

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2019
The four components present in the trypanocidal treatment Samorin, the commercially available formulation of isometamidium, were separated and purified by column chromatography.

Mammalian TatD DNase domain containing 1 (TATDN1) is a proteostasis‐responsive gene with roles in ventricular structure and neuromuscular function

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Twin‐arginine translocation D (TatD) homologs are found across all kingdoms, with debated roles in DNA degradation and protein quality control in unicellular organisms. We characterize TATDN1, the mammalian TatD orthologue, as a proteostatic stress‐responsive cytosolic protein dispensable for DNA degradation.

'GPEET' procyclin is the major surface protein of procyclic culture forms of Trypanosoma brucei brucei strain 427.

Biochemical Journal, 1997
The surface of Trypanosoma brucei brucei insect forms is covered by an invariant protein coat consisting of procyclins. There are six or seven procyclin genes that encode unusual proteins with extensive tandem repeat units of glutamic acid (E) and ...

Independence from kinetoplast DNA maintenance and expression is associated with multi-drug resistance in Trypanosoma brucei in vitro [PDF]

, 2014
It is well known that several antitrypanosomatid drugs accumulate in the parasite's mitochondrion, where they often bind to the organellar DNA, the kinetoplast.

Lactylation: From Homeostasis to Pathological Implications and Therapeutic Strategies

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2025.
Lactylation, a novel post‐translational modification derived from lactate metabolism, plays a critical role in cellular homeostasis and disease pathogenesis. Under physiological conditions, lactylation regulates gene expression, immune responses, and metabolic adaptation. However, dysregulated lactylation is implicated in various pathological processes,

Phylogeography and Taxonomy of Trypanosoma brucei

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2011
Characterizing the evolutionary relationships and population structure of parasites can provide important insights into the epidemiology of human disease.We examined 142 isolates of Trypanosoma brucei from all over sub-Saharan Africa using three distinct classes of genetic markers (kinetoplast CO1 sequence, nuclear SRA gene sequence, eight nuclear ...

Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors and swodkocrine signaling

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 944-961, May 2025.
Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors that trigger swodkocrine signaling. Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and are essential for nucleic acid synthesis and energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar signaling at the systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing ...
