Trypanosoma rangeli is phylogenetically closer to Old World trypanosomes than to Trypanosoma cruzi. [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology, 2018 Trypanosoma rangeli and Trypanosoma cruzi are generalist trypanosomes sharing a wide range of mammalian hosts; they are transmitted by triatomine bugs, and are the only trypanosomes infecting humans in the Neotropics.

Vaccination of dogs with Trypanosoma rangeli induces antibodies against Trypanosoma cruzi in a rural area of Córdoba, Argentina. [PDF]
Mem Inst Oswaldo Cruz, 2016 Dogs play a major role in the domestic cycle of Trypanosoma cruzi, acting as reservoirs. In a previous work we have developed a model of vaccination of dogs in captivity with nonpathogenic Trypanosoma rangeli epimastigotes, resulting in the production of

Exploring Trypanosoma cruzi transmission dynamics in an acute Chagas disease outbreak using next-generation sequencing [PDF]
Parasites & VectorsBackground Chagas disease (CD), caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, poses a major global public health challenge. Although vector-borne transmission is the primary mode of infection, oral transmission is increasingly concerning. Methods This study utilized long-

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 79, Issue 6, Page 518-530, June 2023., 2023 Biochemical and structural analyses of cysteine synthase, the key enzyme in cysteine biosynthesis, from the protozoan pathogens Trypanosoma cruzi, T. theileri and Leishmania infantum are presented. This enzyme is a potential drug target for neglected tropical diseases such as Chagas disease and leishmaniasis.Chagas disease is a neglected tropical ...
