Synthesis of Quinic Acid‐Derived Sialylmimetics and Their Effects on T. cruzi and Trans‐Sialidase
The synthesis of sialylmimetic hybrids using quinic and shikimic acids as precursors was achieved in a single synthetic route to produce two isomers (5S‐ and 5R), incorporating the 4‐(4‐nitrophenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole units, as novel leads for Chagas disease treatment.

Action of Trypanosoma rangeli in infections with virulent Trypanosoma cruzi populations
In experimental murine infections with Trypanosoma rangeli it has been observed development immune response to Trypanosoma cruzi. The aim of the present work was to analyze the result of antigenic stimuli and the protective effect with T.

Dynamics of Immobilized Flagella [PDF]
Although the auger-like 'swimming' motility of the African trypanosome was described upon its discovery over one hundred years ago, the precise biomechanical and biophysical properties of trypanosome flagellar motion has not been elucidated. In this study, we describe five different modes of flagellar beat/wave patterns in African trypanosomes by ...

Chagas disease reactivation in a heart transplant patient infected by domestic Trypanosoma cruzi discrete typing unit I (TcIDOM) [PDF]
Background Trypanosoma cruzi, causative agent of Chagas disease, displays high intraspecific genetic diversity: six genetic lineages or discrete typing units (DTUs) are currently recognized, termed TcI through TcVI.

A Computational Approach to Extinction Events in Chemical Reaction Networks with Discrete State Spaces [PDF]
Recent work of M.D. Johnston et al. has produced sufficient conditions on the structure of a chemical reaction network which guarantee that the corresponding discrete state space system exhibits an extinction event. The conditions consist of a series of systems of equalities and inequalities on the edges of a modified reaction network called a ...

Immune complexes in chronic Chagas disease patients are formed by exovesicles from Trypanosoma cruzi carrying the conserved MASP N-terminal region [PDF]
The exovesicles (EVs) are involved in pathologic host-parasite immune associations and have been recently used as biomarkers for diagnosis of infectious diseases.

Due to the absence of transcription initiation regulation of protein coding genes transcribed by RNA polymerase II, posttranscriptional regulation is responsible for the majority of gene expression changes in trypanosomatids.

Immunity and immune modulation in Trypanosoma cruzi infection.
Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. The parasite reaches the secondary lymphoid organs, the heart, skeletal muscles, neurons in the intestine and esophagus among other tissues.
