Comparative SILAC proteomic analysis of Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream and procyclic lifecycle stages [PDF]
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei has a complex digenetic lifecycle between a mammalian host and an insect vector, and adaption of its proteome between lifecycle stages is essential to its survival and virulence. We have optimized a procedure for

Autoimmunity to phosphatidylserine and anemia in African Trypanosome infections.
Anemia caused by trypanosome infection is poorly understood. Autoimmunity during Trypanosoma brucei infection was proposed to have a role during anemia, but the mechanisms involved during this pathology have not been elucidated. In mouse models and human

Antigenic variation in Trypanosoma brucei: joining the DOTs [PDF]
African trypanosomes, such as <i>Trypanosoma brucei</i>, are protistan parasites that cause sleeping sickness. Though first described more than a century ago, trypanosomes remain a blight on the health of the human population and on the ...

The lysis of Trypanosoma brucei brucei by human serum [PDF]
The natural immunity of humans to the cattle pathogen Trypanosoma brucei brucei, but not to the morphologically indistinguishable human pathogens T. brucei gambiense and T. brucei rhodesiense, is due to the selective killing of the parasite by normal human serum. The factor in human serum that mediates lysis of T. brucei brucei has long been attributed

Aquaglyceroporin-2 is a known determinant of melarsoprol–pentamidine cross-resistance in Trypanosoma brucei brucei laboratory strains. Recently, chimerization at the AQP2–AQP3 tandem locus was described from melarsoprol–pentamidine cross-resistant ...

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 ...

Raman spectroscopic analysis of skin as a diagnostic tool for Human African Trypanosomiasis.
Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) has been responsible for several deadly epidemics throughout the 20th century, but a renewed commitment to disease control has significantly reduced new cases and motivated a target for the elimination of Trypanosoma ...

Expression of procyclin mRNAs during cyclical transmission of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
<i>Trypanosoma brucei</i>, the parasite causing human sleeping sickness, relies on the tsetse fly for its transmission. In the insect, EP and GPEET procyclins are the major surface glycoproteins of procyclic (midgut) forms of the parasite ...
