Characterization of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense variant surface glycoprotein LiTat 1.5 [PDF]
At present, all available diagnostic antibody detection tests for Trypanosoma brucei gambiense human African trypanosomiasis are based on predominant variant surface glycoproteins (VSGs), such as VSG LiTat 1.5. During investigations aiming at replacement

Stage-specific function of sphingolipid synthases in African trypanosomes
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei is the only known eukaryote capable of synthesizing the three main phosphosphingolipids: sphingomyelin (SM), inositol phosphorylceramide (IPC), and ethanolamine phosphorylceramide (EPC).

Insight into the exoproteome of the tissue-derived trypomastigote form of Trypanosoma cruzi
The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi causes Chagas disease, one of the major neglected infectious diseases. It has the potential to infect any nucleated mammalian cell. The secreted/excreted protein repertoire released by T.

Réponse du poulet nigérian local ( Gallus domesticus) aux trypanosomes
La réponse du poulet nigérian local aux souches de Trypanosoma brucei 8/18 et T. vivax Y58 a été recherchée. Le poulet local utilisé dans cette étude était sensible à T. brucei mais réfractaire à T. vivax (Y58) (une souche adaptée aux rongeurs).

Kinetoplastid phylogenetics, with special reference to the evolution of parasitic trypanosomes
To fully understand the evolutionary history of parasitic kinetoplastids and to understand the context within which the evolution of each parasite group has developed, an understanding not just of the parasites, but of all kinetoplastids is required ...
