Aspartate transport and metabolism in the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2005-06)
Aspartate is one of the compounds that induce the differentiation process of the non-infective epimastigote stage to the infective trypomastigote stage of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. l-aspartate is transported ...
Analysis of the expression of toll-like receptors 2 and 4 and cytokine production during experimental Leishmania chagasi infection
(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 2011-08-01)
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognise pathogen-derived molecules and influence immunity to control parasite infections. This study aimed to evaluate the mRNA expression of TLRs 2 and 4, the expression and production of the ...
Estresse oxidativo e lesões no DNA: papel da 8-oxoguanina na viabilidade do Trypanosoma cruzi
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2013-03-21)
The formation of DNA lesions is one of the consequences of oxidative stress, which might result in genomic instability and lead to cell death. Guanine is the base that is most susceptible to oxidation due to its low redox ...
Host specificity and aggregation for a widespread mistletoe in Campo Rupestre vegetation
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-01-01)
Assessment of host infection and distribution patterns are crucial to understand the underling mechanisms that shape parasitic plant spread in natural ecosystems. However, such data remain scarce for mistletoes inhabiting ...
Transcriptomic profile of two developmental stages of the cestode parasite Mesocestoides corti
(Elsevier/North-Holland Biomedical Press, 2019)
Priming Astrocytes With HIV-Induced Reactive Oxygen Species Enhances Their Trypanosoma cruzi Infection
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-10)
Introduction: Trypanosoma cruzi is an intracellular protozoa and etiological agent that causes Chagas disease. Its presence among the immunocompromised HIV-infected individuals is relevant worldwide because of its impact ...
Chemobiosynthesis of New Antimalarial Macrolides
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012-12)
We have synthesized new derivatives of the macrolide antibiotics erythromycin and azithromycin. Novel deoxysugar moieties were attached to these standard antibiotics by biotransformation using a heterologous host. The ...
Liberação de Trichogramma pretiosum (Hym.: Trichogrammatidae) e avaliação de Trichogrammatidae em posturas de Spodoptera frugiperda (Lep.: Noctuidae) na cultura do milho
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBRAgronomiaUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Agronomia, 2009-03-30)
Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith), is considered the major pest of corn. In general, the control of larvae is achieved with insecticides application, which can cause several environmental problems. In search ...
Effects of protein kinase and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase inhibitors on growth and ultrastructure of Trypanosoma cruzi
