Valores de transaminasas en cabras criollas infectadas con Trypanosoma vivax.
Provedor de dados: 119
Autores: ESPINOZA, E.; PRIMERA, G.
La presente comunicación reporta los valores de las enzimas transaminasas, Aspartatoaminotransferasa (AST) y
Alaninaamino-transferasa (ALT) encontrados en sueros de cabras infectadas con la cepa de Trypanosoma vivax Stock (TvIIV) y
sus controles. Las determinaciones se realizaron durante un lapso experimental de diez semanas, divididos en dos períodos iguales
(pre y post-infección) por intermedio de un método colorimétrico, utilizando kits comerciales. Los datos fueron analizados
mediante la prueba t Student's. En el caso de la AST, la comparación de las medias parciales de ambos grupos infectado y control,
no indicó diferencias estadísticas. Con respecto a la ALT, la contrastación de las medias parciales de pre y post-infección del
grupo de cabras...

Experimental Trypanosoma evansi infection in donkeys: hematological, biochemical and
histopathological changes
Provedor de dados: 45
Autores: Cadioli,F.A.; Marques,L.C.; Machado,R.Z.; Alessi,A.C.; Aquino,L.P.C.T.; Barnabé,P A.
Five adult donkeys were experimentally infected with Brazilian strain of Trypanosoma evansi originally isolated from a naturally
infected dog to study the hematological biochemical and histopathological alterations during the evolution of the disease. The
course of the experimental infection was followed up to 145 days. Hematological analyses of the infected donkeys revealed a
marked decline in hemoglobin, packed-cell volume, and erythrocyte count. Anemia was observed after successive peaks of
parasitemia. Biochemical analyses showed increased levels of icterus index, serum globulins and decreased serum albumin and
glucose values. All infected donkeys revealed enlargement of spleen and its white pulp, enlargement of mediastinal lymph nodes
and lungs...

TLR2 and TLR4 mediated host immune responses in major infectious diseases: a review
Provedor de dados: 55
Autores: Mukherjee,Suprabhat; Karmakar,Subhajit; Babu,Santi Prasad Sinha.
Abstract During the course of evolution, multicellular organisms have been orchestrated with an efficient and versatile immune
system to counteract diverse group of pathogenic organisms. Pathogen recognition is considered as the most critical step behind
eliciting adequate immune response during an infection. Hitherto Toll-like receptors (TLRs), especially the surface ones viz.
TLR2 and TLR4 have gained immense importance due to their extreme ability of identifying distinct molecular patterns from
invading pathogens. These pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) not only act as innate sensor but also shape and bridge innate and
adaptive immune responses. In addition, they also play a pivotal role in regulating the balance between Th1 and Th2 type of
response...

Emerging acute Chagas Disease in Amazonian Brazil: case reports with serious cardiac involvement
Provedor de dados: 55
Autores: Pinto,Ana Yecê das Neves; Valente,Sebastião Aldo da Silva; Valente,Vera da Costa.
Four cases of serious cardiac attacks by autochthonous Trypanosoma cruzi infection from the Brazilian Amazon are reported;
three of them occurred in micro-epidemic episodes. The manifestations included sudden fever, myalgia, dyspnea and signs of
heart failure. Diagnosis was confirmed by specific exams, especially QBC (Quantitative Buffy Coat) and natural xenodiagnosis.
Despite treatment with benznidazol, three patients died with serious myocarditis, renal failure and cardiac tamponade. The authors
call attention to the emergence of this disease and reveal a previously unknown pathogenicity of T. cruzi strains in this area, added
to a non-usual transmission form.

ABSTRACT: Two outbreaks of trypanosomiasis by Trypanosoma evansi in horses in the municipality of Chaves, Marajó Island,
Pará State, Brazil are reported. The first outbreak occurred in April 2011 in a farm with 147 horses; of these, 47 (31.97%) got sick,
and 40 (27.21%) died. The second outbreak occurred in May 2012 and involved nine properties. Of a total of 679 horses, 209
(30.07%) got sick, and 183 (26.97%) died. The main clinical signs observed in these horses were weight loss, abdominal edema,
toe dragging, and pelvic muscle atrophy. Necropsy was performed in two horses, one from each outbreak. Macroscopic alterations
were not seen in the horse from the first outbreak; however, the horse from the second outbreak exhibited emaciation, pallor and...

Effect of aflatoxin B1 on the therapeutic efficacy of suramin in Trypanosoma brucei
rhodesiense-infected mice
Provedor de dados: 19

Through immuno-suppression, aflatoxins could affect drug and vaccine efficacy. Such effects have not been evaluated in
treatment of many diseases including trypanosomiasis. We assessed the effect of aflatoxin B1 on the efficacy of suramin, the drug
used for treatment of early stage sleeping sickness, in a murine model. Mice were fed daily on a diet containing 0.50 mg
aflatoxin/kg body weight or a placebo. They were infected with Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense on day 7 post-aflatoxin exposure
and then treated with one of 6 different doses of suramin (4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5 mg/kg body weight) at the onset of
parasitemia. The mice were fed on aflatoxin diet for 30 days and the curative dose values (CD50, 75, and 90) computed and
compared using a...

Provedor de dados: 19

The current study investigated the effects of different types of Kenyan tea extracts on the pathogenesis of Trypanosoma brucei
brucei in a Swiss White mice model. Following infection with trypanosomes, the mice were monitored for survival and liver
pathology. Tea significantly (P<0.05) enhanced the survival rate of tea treated mice. Additionally, in tea treated but infected
mice, there was reduction in infiltration of inflammatory cells into the periportal and parenchymal regions as well as hepatocyte
cell damage compared to the infected untreated animals. Green and white teas were superior in most of the above effects while
black tea and oolong teas had the least effects. The tea extracts were more efficacious than dexamethasone in prolonging the life...

Autores: Kibugu, J.K; Makumi, J.N; Ngeranwa, J.J.N; Kagira, J.M; Gathumbi, J.K; Mwangi, J.N.
Aflatoxins are known to alter the pathogenesis of many infectious diseases, but such effects have not been evaluated in
trypanosome infections. The aim of the present work was to assess the effects of aflatoxin B1 on the pathogenesis of
Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense infection using a murine model. Mice fed on 0.50 mg/kg aflatoxin b. wt. were infected with T. b.
rhodesiense and compared to trypanosome infected and uninfected aflatoxin-fed controls. The clinical and pathological changes
were determined and the quantitative data statistically analysed using standard methods. The results showed that infected
aflatoxin-fed mice had pronounced dyspnoea, significantly (P<0.05) reduced survival, extreme emaciation, pronounced
macrocytic normochromic anaemia...
