Trypanosoma cruzitrans-sialidase inducesSTAT3andERKactivation by prokineticin receptor 2 binding

Roberta Lattanzi et al.

Summary: Tc85, a member of trans-sialidase family, plays a crucial role in Trypanosoma cruzi parasite adhesion to mammalian cells by interacting with prokineticin receptor 2. LamG, a Tc85 domain, activates prokineticin receptor 2 and contributes to nervous system infection. The study also sheds light on the implications of the L173R mutation in Kallmann syndrome and its potential impact on parasite infection.

Impact of the Extracellular Vesicles Derived From Trypanosoma cruzi: A Paradox in Host Response and Lipid Metabolism Modulation

Heloisa D'Avila et al.

Summary: Chagas disease is a significant public health issue in South and Central America, with high morbidity and mortality rates related to poverty. The disease's complex pathogenesis involves various factors such as molecules secreted by infected cells, lipid mediators, and more recently, extracellular vesicles. Trypanosoma cruzi's extracellular vesicles play a role in paracrine communication during infection, impacting inflammatory modulation and parasite escape mechanisms.

CD8+ T Cell Response Quality Is Related to Parasite Control in an Animal Model of Single and Mixed Chronic Trypanosoma cruzi Infections

Jose Mateus et al.

Summary: The study investigates the relationship between parasite control and immune T cell responses in Chagas disease by using distinct infection approaches in an animal model. Different infection outcomes were observed in single or mixed T. cruzi infection with different genotypes, leading to differential immune CD8(+) T cell responses. This suggests that the quality of the CD8(+) T cell response may dictate differences in infection outcomes during chronic T. cruzi infection.

Interleukin-9 in Immunopathology of Trypanosoma cruzi Experimental Infection

Nadjania Saraiva de Lira Silva et al.

Summary: IL-9 plays a role in controlling T. cruzi infection by reducing invasion and multiplication in vitro, and acts as a protective factor during the chronic phase of experimental infection in BALB/c mice, controlling cardiac fibrosis and proinflammatory cytokine production.

Comparative Analysis of Virulence Mechanisms of Trypanosomatids Pathogenic to Humans

Artur Leonel de Castro Neto et al.

Summary: Trypanosoma brucei, Leishmania spp., and T. cruzi are the causative agents of human African trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, and Chagas disease, respectively, and they have developed mechanisms to evade the immune response system throughout the infection cycle, allowing them to survive and propagate in their hosts.

Differential tissue distribution of discrete typing units after drug combination therapy in experimental Trypanosoma cruzi mixed infection

Mariana Strauss et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the distribution of parasite clones in infected mice after treatment, finding that the combination treatment had similar outcomes to BZ6.25, while BZ100 was the most effective but did not achieve parasite clearance, leading to greater histological changes. Treatment may alter the distribution of infecting clones in host tissues, suggesting a complex scenario for Chagas disease treatment and the search for new therapies.

Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription-3 Modulation of Cardiac Pathology in Chronic Chagasic Cardiomyopathy

Kristyn A. Hoffman et al.

Summary: The study investigated the role of STAT3 in cardiac pathology during CCC, finding that its inhibition eliminated cardiac fibrosis but increased inflammation. This suggests that STAT3 plays a critical role in the cardiac inflammatory-fibrotic axis in CCC.

Dataset on the differentiation of THP-1 monocytes to LPS inducible adherent macrophages and their capacity for NO/iNOS signaling

Adem Ozleyen et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that differentiated THP-1 cells respond to inflammatory stimuli by changing their phenotypes and altering gene expression to an activation state. The sustained activation of the NO/iNOS signaling pathway in the inflammatory microenvironment leads to increased NO release.
