. 2016 Jan;
10(1):e0003747.
PMID: 26771187
The molecular mechanisms of Trypanosoma cruzi induced cardiac fibrosis remains to be elucidated. Primary human cardiomyoctes (PHCM) exposed to invasive T. cruzi trypomastigotes were used for transcriptome profiling and downstream...

PMID: 23980110
Human defensins play a fundamental role in the initiation of innate immune responses to some microbial pathogens. Here we show that colonic epithelial model HCT116 cells respond to Trypanosoma cruzi...

PMID: 23768837
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults has been associated with hypertension, low baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), a delayed heart rate response to changing blood pressure (heart period delay [HPD]), and...

Thrombospondin-1 interacts with Trypanosoma cruzi surface calreticulin to enhance cellular infection
Johnson C, Kleshchenko Y, Ikejiani A, Udoko A, Cardenas T, Pratap S, et al.
PLoS One
. 2012 Jul;
7(7):e40614.
PMID: 22808206
Trypanosoma cruzi causes Chagas disease, which is a neglected tropical disease that produces severe pathology and mortality. The mechanisms by which the parasite invades cells are not well elucidated. We...

Open Parasitol J
. 2011 Sep;
4:72-76.
PMID: 21499436
It has been shown that the invasive trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi use and modulate components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) during the initial process of infection. Infective trypomastigotes up-regulate...
