New insights for an old drug: difluoromethylornithine boosts the trypanocidal action of benznidazole on Trypanosoma cruzi in vitro and in vivo [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is currently a global health problem. Its multiple forms of transmission, which favor the spread of the infection, and the limited treatment options—still restricted to only two drugs ...

Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]

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.

Alpha-Tubulin Acetylation in Trypanosoma cruzi: A Dynamic Instability of Microtubules Is Required for Replication and Cell Cycle Progression

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Trypanosomatids have a cytoskeleton arrangement that is simpler than what is found in most eukaryotic cells. However, it is precisely organized and constituted by stable microtubules.
