Transferability of Trypanosoma cruzi from mixed human host infection to Triatoma infestans and from insects to axenic culture
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2015)
© 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. The etiologic agent of Chagas disease is Trypanosoma cruzi, a protozoan whose life cycle involves obligatory passage through vertebrate and invertebrate hosts in a series of stages. The aim of ...
Interactions Between Trypanosoma cruzi the Chagas Disease Parasite and Naturally Infected Wild Mepraia Vectors of Chile
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, 2016)
Chagas disease, which ranks among the world's most neglected diseases, is a chronic, systemic, parasitic infection caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. Mepraia species are the wild vectors of this parasite in Chile. ...
Prevalence of Trypanosoma cruzi's Discrete Typing Units in a cohort of Latin American migrants in Spain
Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. This is an endemic disease in the Americas, but increased migration to Europe has made it emerge in countries where it was previously unknown, being Spain the ...
Potential association of Trypanosoma cruzi DTUs TcV and TcVI with the digestive form of Chagas disease
(Elsevier Science, 2020-04-24)
The relationship among genetic diversity of Trypanosoma cruzi and clinical forms of Chagas disease remain elusive. In order to assess the possible association between different T. cruzi Discrete Typing Units (DTUs) and the ...
Congenital Chagas disease in Santa Cruz Department, Bolivia, is dominated by Trypanosoma cruzi lineage V
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
BACKGROUND: This study identified Trypanosoma cruzi discrete typing units (DTUs) in maternal and infant specimens collected from two hospitals in Bolivia, using conventional genotyping and DTU-specific serotyping. METHODS: ...
Molecular characterization of trypanosomatid infections in wild howler monkeys (Alouatta caraya) in northeastern Argentina
(Elsevier, 2016-08)
The transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi by vectors is confined to the Americas, and the infection circulates in at least two broadly defined transmission cycles occurring in domestic and sylvatic habitats. This study sought ...
Identification of Trypanosoma cruzi Discrete Typing Units (DTUs) through the implementation of a High-Resolution Melting (HRM) genotyping assay
Background Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a geographically widespread anthropozoonosis that is considered a major public health problem in Latin America. Because this parasite presents high genetic ...
Utilização da espectroscopia com análise multivariada na identificação de diferentes DTUs do Trypanosoma cruzi em Triatoma brasiliensis infectados experimentalmente
(BrasilUFRNPROGRAMA DE PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO EM CIÊNCIAS BIOLÓGICAS, 2018-02-16)
The Trypanosoma cruzi infection is a public health problem and it is substancial that its
diagnosis be performed quickly and efficiently. However, the techniques applied on the diagnosis of
T. cruzi infection present low ...
