Trypanosoma congolense Infections: Induced Nitric Oxide Inhibits Parasite Growth In Vivo

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
Wild‐type (WT) C57BL/6 mice infected intraperitoneally with 5 × 106 Trypanosoma congolense survive for more than 30 days. C57BL/6 mice deficient in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS−/−) and infected with 103 or 5 × 106 parasites do not control the parasitemia and survive for only 14 ± 7 or 6.8 ± 0.1 days, respectively.

Spillover of Trypanosoma lewisi and Trypanosoma musculi Allied Trypanosomes from Rodents to Bats in the Roofs of Human Dwellings: Synanthropic Bats as a Potential New Source of Human Opportunistic Trypanosomes

open access: yesZoonotic Diseases
Bats and rodents serve as reservoirs for numerous zoonotic pathogens, including species of Trypanosoma and Leishmania. Domestic rats host the flea-transmitted Trypanosoma (Herpetosoma) lewisi, which can be associated with humans, particularly young or ...

[Immunosuppressor effect of Trypanosoma musculi (Mastigophora: Trypanosomatidae) on experimental toxoplasmosis].

open access: yesRevista de biologia tropical, 2013
The immunosuppression caused by species of the gender Trypanosoma has been widely documented. The influence over experimental infections with Toxoplasma gondii is evident when using Trypanosoma lewisi, a natural parasite of white rats. We decided to test the effect of Trypanosoma musculi from mice, an organism with very similar biological ...

Efecto inmunosupresor de la infección por Trypanosoma musculi (Mastigophora: Trypanosomatidae) en la toxoplasmosis experimental

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2013
La prevalencia de infecciones por Toxoplasma gondii en el ser humano es de 5-90% según la zona geográfica; en Costa Rica por ejemplo, la seroprevalencia es de un 58%, por lo que es importante comprender algunos procesos inmunológicos, propios en estas ...

Role of hypochlorous acid inTrypanosoma musculikilling by phagocytes

open access: yesParasitology, 1989
SUMMARYTrypanosoma musculiare readily killed when phagocytosed by mononuclear phagocytes but the nature of the mediators of this cytotoxicity is unclear. Among the most potent mediators are oxygen-derived species. The generation of chemilumine-scence (CL) by peritoneal macrophages from 12 dayT.
