The genetics and genomics of Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]
Trypanosoma cruzi is a kinetoplastid parasite that causes Chagas disease. Trypanosomes are unusual organisms in many aspects of its genetics and molecular and cellular biology and considered a paradigm of the exception of the rule in the eukaryotic ...

Introducing automation to the molecular diagnosis of Trypanosoma cruzi infection: A comparative study of sample treatments, DNA extraction methods and real-time PCR assays [PDF]
Background Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has become a useful tool for the diagnosis of Trypanosoma cruzi infection. The development of automated DNA extraction methodologies and PCR systems is an important step toward the standardization of protocols ...

Virtual Screening Based on QSAR and Molecular Docking of Possible Inhibitors Targeting Chagas CYP51
Chagas is a neglected tropical disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi with no effective treatment in all its forms. There is a need to find more effective therapeutic alternatives with reduced toxicity.

Exploring 6‐Hydroxy‐3‐Aryl/Heteroarylcoumarins as Promising Candidates Against Trypanosoma cruzi
New therapies are urgently needed for Chagas disease, and screening of 6‐hydroxy‐3‐aryl/heteroarylcoumarin derivatives identified highly selective compounds with potent activity against T. cruzi. In particular, derivative 1f showed submicromolar trypomastigote potency, dual‐stage activity, and inhibition of amastigote‐to‐trypomastigote differentiation,

A multi-parametric analysis of Trypanosoma cruzi infection: common pathophysiologic patterns beyond extreme heterogeneity of host responses [PDF]
The extreme genetic diversity of the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi has been proposed to be associated with the clinical outcomes of the disease it provokes: Chagas disease (CD).

ABSTRACT This report describes the first documented case of a two‐port laparoscopic ovariectomy (lapOVE) in a raccoon (Procyon lotor (Linnaeus, 1758)). A rescued, eight‐month‐old, 5.0 kg female raccoon, kept as a pet, was presented to the Veterinarium, clinic of Agricultural University of Georgia (Tbilisi, Georgia), for elective ovariectomy. Anesthesia

Abstract The eukaryotic translation initiation is a biological process in which at least a dozen eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are involved. Specifically, eIF3, eIF1, eIF5, and eIF2 as a ternary complex (eIF2‐TC) bound to GTP and methionyl initiator tRNA (Met‐tRNAiMet).
