Trypanosoma brucei gambiense Group 2: The Unusual Suspect.

Trends in Parasitology, 2019
Trypanosoma brucei causes human African trypanosomiasis (HAT). Three subspecies were described: T. b. gambiense (Tbg) and T. b. rhodesiense (Tbr) in humans, and T. b. brucei (Tbb) in animals. Molecular markers subdivided Tbg into two groups: Tbg1 and Tbg2, of which the latter is different from Tbg1 and Tbr (absence of the SRA gene), but ...

Ethical Considerations for Global Health Decision-Making: Justice-Enhanced Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of New Technologies for Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. [PDF]

Public Health Ethics, 2018
We sought to assess formally the extent to which different control and elimination strategies for human African trypanosomiasis Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (Gambiense HAT) would exacerbate or alleviate experiences of societal disadvantage that ...

Neural Damage in Experimental Trypanosoma brucei gambiense Infection: Hypothalamic Peptidergic Sleep and Wake-Regulatory Neurons [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2018
Neuron populations of the lateral hypothalamus which synthesize the orexin (OX)/hypocretin or melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) peptides play crucial, reciprocal roles in regulating wake stability and sleep.

Characterization of recombinant Trypanosoma brucei gambiense Translationally Controlled Tumor Protein (rTbgTCTP) and its interaction with Glossina midgut bacteria. [PDF]

Gut Microbes, 2017
In humans, sleeping sickness (i.e. Human African Trypanosomiasis) is caused by the protozoan parasites Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (Tbg) in West and Central Africa, and T. b. rhodesiense in East Africa.

Sensitivity and Specificity of a Prototype Rapid Diagnostic Test for the Detection of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense Infection: A Multi-centric Prospective Study

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Background A major challenge in the control of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) is lack of reliable diagnostic tests that are rapid and easy to use in remote areas where the disease occurs.

Molecular Evidence of a Trypanosoma brucei gambiense Sylvatic Cycle in the Human African Trypanosomiasis Foci of Equatorial Guinea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Gambiense trypanosomiasis is considered an anthroponotic disease. Consequently, control programs are generally aimed at stopping transmission of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (T. b. gambiense) by detecting and treating human cases.
