Effects of TcFLA‐1BP and TcGP72 Deletion on the Infectivity and Survival of Trypanosoma cruzi in Cell Cultures

open access: yesCell Biology International, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1395-1410, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, is a neglected tropical disease with limited treatment options and no available vaccine. Understanding the role of proteins in the parasite's biological cycle is critical for advancing vaccine development and optimizing therapies.

A Focus on Natural Autophagy Modulators as Potential Host‐Directed Weapons Against Emerging and Re‐Emerging Viruses

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1850-1882, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process involved in maintaining homeostasis and in the degradation of damaged organelles and external pathogens. Nature provides complex and varied reservoirs of scaffolds and chemical entities that may have a pivotal role in the search for new therapeutic leads.

CpG and Interleukin-15 Synergize to Enhance IFN-γ Production by Activated CD8+ T Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Interleukin-15 (IL-15) regulates the development and maintenance of memory CD8+ T cells. Paradoxically, we previously reported that IL-15 could enhance CD8+ T-cell responses to IL-12, a proinflammatory cytokine required for optimal priming of effector ...

Beyond Histones: Unveiling the Functional Roles of Protein Acetylation in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes

open access: yesCell Biology International, Volume 49, Issue 10, Page 1301-1318, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Lysine acetylation plays a crucial role in cellular processes and is found across various evolutionary organisms. Recent advancements in proteomic techniques revealed the presence of acetylation in thousands of non‐histone proteins. Here, we conducted extensive meta‐analysis of 48 acetylomes spanning diverse organisms, including archaea ...

Evaluating the protonation state of the catalytic Cys25 in cruzain cysteine protease: A target for Chagas disease

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Cruzain (Cz), the major cysteine protease of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease, employs Cys25 as its catalytic nucleophile, enabling peptide bond hydrolysis via nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl carbon of substrates.
