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.

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.

Outcomes of Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma evansi infections on health of Southern coati (Nasua nasua), crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous), and ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) in the Brazilian Pantanal

PLoS ONE, 2018
The occurrence of Trypanosoma spp. in wild carnivore populations has been intensively investigated during the last decades. However, the impact of these parasites on the health of free-living infected animals has been largely neglected.

Histopathologic identification of Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas') encephalitis in an AIDS patient

Human Pathology: Case Reports, 2017
Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas') encephalitis is an uncommon manifestation of T. cruzi infection, typically seen in immunocompromised patients. Encephalitis results from the reactivation of chronic infection predominately in individuals from endemic areas ...

Análise da fonte alimentar de Panstrongylus megistus (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) e sua atual importância como vetor do Trypanosoma cruzi, no Estado de Minas Gerais Analysis on the food source of Panstrongylus megistus (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae) and its present importance as a vector for Trypanosoma cruzi, in the State of Minas Gerais

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2010
INTRODUÇÃO: A pesquisa da fonte alimentar dos triatomíneos auxilia no conhecimento sobre a biologia destes insetos, inclusive para inferir-se a importância dos mesmos como transmissores do Trypanosoma cruzi ao homem.

Endothelial Transmigration by Trypanosoma cruzi

PLoS ONE, 2013
Chagas heart disease, the leading cause of heart failure in Latin America, results from infection with the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. Although T. cruzi disseminates intravascularly, how the parasite contends with the endothelial barrier to escape the bloodstream and infect tissues has not been described. Understanding the interaction between T.

Discrete typing units of Trypanosoma cruzi identified in rural dogs and cats in the humid Argentinean Chaco [PDF]

, 2012
The discrete typing units (DTUs) of Trypanosoma cruzi that infect domestic dogs and cats have rarely been studied. With this purpose we conducted a cross-sectional xenodiagnostic survey of dog and cat populations residing in 2 infested rural villages in ...

Host-Parasite Interactions in Chagas Disease: Genetically Unidentical Isolates of a Single Trypanosoma cruzi Strain Identified In Vitro via LSSP-PCR. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The present study aims at establishing whether the diversity in pathogenesis within a genetically diverse host population infected with a single polyclonal strain of Trypanosoma cruzi is due to selection of specific subpopulations within the strain.

Evasion of the Immune Response by Trypanosoma cruzi during Acute Infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2016
Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiologic agent of Chagas disease, a neglected tropical disease that affects millions of people mainly in Latin America. To establish a life-long infection, T.
