Minicircle classes heterogeneity within the TcIII and TcIV discrete typing units of Trypanosoma cruzi
(Elsevier, 2017)
The taxon Trypanosoma cruzi, causative agent of Chagas disease, is composed of several discrete typing units
(DTUs) named TcI-TcVI, and Tcbat. The history of the taxon T. cruzi is known, even though several controversial
aspects ...
Minicircle classes heterogeneity within the TcIII and TcIV discrete typing units of Trypanosoma cruzi
(Elsevier, 2017-07)
The taxon Trypanosoma cruzi, causative agent of Chagas disease, is composed of several discrete typing units (DTUs) named TcI-TcVI, and Tcbat. The history of the taxon T. cruzi is known, even though several controversial ...
Phylogenomics of Trypanosoma cruzi: Few evidence of TcI/TcII mosaicism in TcIII challenges the hypothesis of an ancient TcI/TcII hybridization
(Elsevier Science, 2017-06)
Phylogenetic relationships among major lineages of Trypanosoma cruzi are still debatable. Particularly, it is controversial the origin of two main lineages: TcIII and TcIV. Some authors proposed that these lineages have ...
Retrospective molecular integrated epidemiology of chagas disease in Colombia
American trypanosomiasis is a very complex zoonosis that is present throughout South America, Central America, and Mexico and continues to represent a serious threat to the health of countries in the region. The parasite ...
Evolution of Trypanosoma cruzi: clarifying hybridisations, mitochondrial introgressions and phylogenetic relationships between major lineages
(Fundacao Oswaldo Cruz, 2015-02)
Different models of evolution of Trypanosoma cruzi have been proposed. These models suggest scarce events of genetic exchange in the evolutionary history of this parasite. In addition, the debate focused on the existence ...
New insights into Trypanosoma cruzi evolution, genotyping and molecular diagnostics from satellite DNA sequence analysis
(Public Library of Science, 2017-12)
Trypanosoma cruzi has been subdivided into seven Discrete Typing Units (DTUs), TcI-TcVI and Tcbat. Two major evolutionary models have been proposed to explain the origin of hybrid lineages, but while it is widely accepted ...
Chagas Cardiomyopathy Manifestations and Trypanosoma cruzi Genotypes Circulating in Chronic Chagasic Patients
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2010)
Chagas disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi is a complex disease that is endemic and an important problem in public health in Latin America. The T. cruzi parasite is classified into six discrete taxonomic units (DTUs) based ...
Diagnóstico molecular de infecção por Trypanosoma cruzi, determinação de Discrete Typing Unit e sua associação com o perfil imunológico em amostras de pacientes chagásicos agudos
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2016-02-29)
According to the World Health Organization, there are about 7 million people infected with Trypanosoma cruzi worldwide (WHO, 2014). Chagas disease has long been considered an endemic disease in rural areas and Latin ...
