Astrocyte Apoptosis and HIV Replication Are Modulated in Host Cells Coinfected with Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]

, 2017
The protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiological agent of Chagas disease. In immunosuppressed individuals, as it occurs in the coinfection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the central nervous system may be affected. In this regard, reactivation

Biology of Trypanosoma cruzi: An update [PDF]

Infectio, 2012
AbstractChagas disease, an illness caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, is clinically and epidemiologically important in Latin America, and particularly in Brazil. This article presents the main biological characteristics of Trypanosoma cruzi, emphasizing ultrastructural, morphological, evolutionary, transcriptomic, and proteomic aspects.

Canine Trypanosoma cruzi infection in the Bolivian Chaco [PDF]

, 2018
A cross-sectional study on Trypanosoma cruzi was carried out in 2013 to evaluate the role of dogs as possible source of infection for humans in two rural communities of the highly endemic Bolivian Chaco (Bartolo, Chuquisaca Department, n = 57 dogs; and ...

Infectivity of amastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1986
The infectivity amastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi, isolated from the supernatant of the J774G8 macrophage-like cell line infected with trypomastigotes to normal macrophages in vitro was tested. After a period of 1 h of T. cruzi-macrophage interaction about 2% of the mouse peritoneal macrophages had ingested amastigotes.

Immune complexes in chronic Chagas disease patients are formed by exovesicles from Trypanosoma cruzi carrying the conserved MASP N-terminal region [PDF]

, 2017
The exovesicles (EVs) are involved in pathologic host-parasite immune associations and have been recently used as biomarkers for diagnosis of infectious diseases.

On the occurrence of thioredoxin in Trypanosoma cruzi

Acta Tropica, 2006
The full coding sequence for thioredoxin from Trypanosoma cruzi (TcTRX) strain Tulahuen O has been cloned into the pRSETA vector. The protein was expressed in Escherichia coli with an N-terminal extension of six histidine residues for purification through metal ion chromatography.
