Effects of Sheep and Mouse Urine on the Growth Pattern of Leishmania major Promastigotes
The protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania are the causative agents of different clinical diseases. Fetal calf serum (FCS) is the main part and the most expensive ingredient of the Leishmania culture media. Here, the efficacies of different concentrations (1%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%) of the filtered and autoclaved sheep and mouse urine were evaluated ...

Genes for cysteine proteinases fromTrypanosoma rangeli [PDF]
PCR amplification of genomic DNA from the American trypanosome, Trypanosoma rangeli, using as primers oligonucleotides derived from the gene of cruzipain, the major cysteine proteinase (CP) from Trypanosoma cruzi, allowed the production of a probe which was used to obtain three clones encoding a CP with 70% overall identity with cruzipain.

Findings here show that successional forest predicts greater kissing bug infestation risk in palm trees, whereas native forest predicts lower kissing bug occurrence but greater infection with T. cruzi. These insights can guide land use planning towards vegetation management practices that help minimize T. cruzi transmission risks for rural communities.

In Crocodylidae family three trypanosomes species were described, T. grayi in African crocodilian and T. cecili and Trypanosoma sp. in Caimans species from Brazil. T. grayi was transmitted by tsetse flies and the vector of Brazilian caimans trypanosomes is unknown.

Trypanosoma rangeli expresses a β-galactofuranosyl transferase
Glycoconjugates play essential roles in cell recognition, infectivity and survival of protozoan parasites within their insect vectors and mammalian hosts. β-galactofuranose is a component of several glycoconjugates in many organisms, including a variety of trypanosomatids, but is absent in mammalian and African trypanosomes.

A new simple approach for the exquisitely stereo‐controlled introduction of the C‐3 equatorial fluorine on neuraminic acid derivatives by incorporation of steric bulk at C‐4. Through this size‐controlled method, we have elaborated a novel synthetic route that exclusively produces the potent anti‐influenza drug candidate; 2,3‐difluoro‐zanamivir analogue

Trypanosoma cruzi: Seroprevalence Detection in Suburban Population of Santiago de Querétaro (Mexico)
Objectives. To evaluate the potential of iron‐oxide dismutase excreted (SODeCRU) by T. cruzi as the antigen fraction in the serodiagnosis of Chagas disease and compile new epidemiological data on the seroprevalence of this disease in the suburban population of the city of Santiago de Querétaro (Mexico). Design and Methods.
