Trypanosoma cruzi and Its Soluble Antigens Induce NET Release by Stimulating Toll-Like Receptors

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Neutrophils release fibrous traps of DNA, histones, and granule proteins known as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which contribute to microbicidal killing and have been implicated in autoimmunity.

Microsomal Hemoproteins in Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1971
SummarySpectrophotometry of whole cells, microsomal, mitochondrial, and supernatant fractions of Trypanosoma cruzi (Tulahuen strain, culture forms) shows that the microsomal hemoproteins largely contribute to the heme pigments of the parasite. Both the microsomal and mitochondrial fractions have NADH-ferricyanide reductase, NADH-cytochrome c reductase ...

Edelfosine (ET-18-OCH3) a Promising Alkylphospholipid against Resistant Trichomonas vaginalis

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
Edelfosine (ET-18-OCH3) is an alkylphospholipid with an analogous structure to miltefosine. Both molecules are active against kinetoplastids (Leishmania spp., Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei). [...]

Kinetoplastids:related protozoan pathogens, different diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Kinetoplastids are a group of flagellated protozoans that include the species Trypanosoma and Leishmania, which are human pathogens with devastating health and economic effects. The sequencing of the genomes of some of these species has highlighted their

The trans-sialidase, the major Trypanosoma cruzi virulence factor: Three decades of studies.

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2015
Chagas' disease is a potentially life-threatening disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. Since the description of Chagas'disease in 1909 extensive research has identified important events in the disease in order to understand the ...
