Transcriptome Remodeling in Trypanosoma cruzi and Human Cells during Intracellular Infection

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
Intracellular colonization and persistent infection by the kinetoplastid protozoan parasite, Trypanosoma cruzi, underlie the pathogenesis of human Chagas disease. To obtain global insights into the T.

Does native Trypanosoma cruzi calreticulin mediate growth inhibition of a mammary tumor during infection? [PDF]

, 2016
Indexación: Web of Science.Background: For several decades now an antagonism between Trypanosoma cruzi infection and tumor development has been detected. The molecular basis of this phenomenon remained basically unknown until our proposal that T.

Genome‐Wide Protein Interaction Analysis in Parasitic Gyrodactylus Flatworms–Fish Hosts System and Drug Target Identification

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Genomic data offer a powerful tool for studying the molecular interactions between parasites and their hosts, but they remain scarce for parasitic monogenean flatworms. This study presents the first high‐quality phased genome assembly for monogeneans (Gyrodactylus kobayashii), and uses it to predict key interacting proteins between monogenean parasite ‐

Epidemiology and Molecular Typing of Trypanosoma cruzi in Naturally-Infected Hound Dogs and Associated Triatomine Vectors in Texas, USA

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Background Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiologic agent of Chagas disease throughout the Americas. Few population-level studies have examined the epidemiology of canine infection and strain types of T. cruzi that infect canines in the USA.

The cell surface of Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1984
The cell surface of trypanosomatids is formed by the plasma membrane and a layer of sub-pellicular microtubules which are connected to the plasma membrane. The plasma membrane is composed by proteins, lipids and carbohydrates which form the glycocalix.

Anti-Trypanosoma cruzi action of a new benzofuran derivative based on amiodarone structure [PDF]

, 2018
Chagas disease is a neglected tropical affection caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. There is no current effective treatment since the only two available drugs have a limited efficacy and produce side effects.

Exploring Bioactive Metabolites From Fusarium falciforme and Aspergillus terreus Isolated From Protease‐Rich Fruits: Antifungal, Antitrypanosomal, and Enzymatic Inhibitory Activities

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Metabolites from fungi isolated from protease rich‐fruits displayed antifungal, antitrypanosomal and enzymatic inhibitory activities. ABSTRACT Fungal secondary metabolites display remarkable chemical diversity and biological potential, with applications in agriculture and pharmaceuticals. This study isolated and characterized bioactive metabolites from

The Complement System: A Prey of Trypanosoma cruzi

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Trypanosoma cruzi is a protozoan parasite known to cause Chagas disease (CD), a neglected sickness that affects around 6–8 million people worldwide. Originally, CD was mainly found in Latin America but more recently, it has been spread to countries in ...

Identification of Trypanosoma cruzi Polyamine Transport Inhibitors by Computational Drug Repurposing [PDF]

, 2019
Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease, a parasitic infection endemic in Latin America. In T. cruzi the transport of polyamines is essential because this organism is unable to synthesize these compounds de novo.

Co‐cultivation and Medium Optimization: A Strategy for Discovering Fungal‐derived Protease Inhibitors

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fungi Fusarium guttiforme and Phytophthora palmivora were cultivated in four different media (Potato Dextrose Agar, Czapek, rice, and ISP2) and co‐cultured to stimulate fungal interactions and enhance secondary metabolite production. Promising extracts were fractionated, yielding compounds such as the iron complex of fusaric acid (1 ...
