Trends in Parasitology, 2020 Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiological agent of American trypanosomiasis, or Chagas disease, and is transmitted mainly by blood-sucking reduviid insects in endemic countries. Metacyclic trypomastigotes released in the feces during the insect blood meal enter a mammalian host through skin wounds or mucosal membranes and invade sur- rounding cells.

Broadening the spectrum of ivermectin: Its effect on Trypanosoma cruzi and related trypanosomatids
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Chagas disease is an endemic American parasitosis, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi. The current therapies, benznidazole (BZN) and nifurtimox (NFX), show limited efficacy and multiple side effects. Thus, there is a need to develop new trypanocidal strategies.

Acute Phase Proteins in Dogs with Natural Infection by Trypanosoma cruzi
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2023 Acute phase proteins have been used as tools for the diagnosis, monitoring, and prognosis of several diseases in domestic animals. However, the dynamics of these proteins in infection by Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease in dogs ...
