Expanding the knowledge about Leishmania species in wild mammals and dogs in the Brazilian savannah [PDF]
Background: Wild, synanthropic and domestic mammals act as hosts and/or reservoirs of several Leishmania spp. Studies on possible reservoirs of Leishmania in different areas are fundamental to understand host-parasite interactions and develop strategies ...

Trypanosomatids are common and diverse parasites of Drosophila [PDF]
SUMMARYDrosophila melanogasteris an important model system of immunity and parasite resistance, yet most studies use parasites that do not naturally infect this organism. We have studied trypanosomatids in natural populations to assess the prevalence and

Proteome-wide analysis of Trypanosoma cruzi exponential and stationary growth phases reveals a subcellular compartment-specific regulation [PDF]
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiologic agent of Chagas disease, cycles through different life stages characterized by defined molecular traits associated with the proliferative or differentiation state. In particular, T. cruzi epimastigotes are the replicative
