The primary mode of transmission for Chagas disease is vector-borne transmission, spread by hematophagous insects the Triatominae subfamily. In Mexico, triatomine Meccus pallidipennis particularly significant in Trypanosoma cruzi. This study focused on analyzing protein expression and modifications glycosylation different regions digestive tract fifth-instar nymphs M. pallidipennis. Two gut sections were dissected extracted: anterior midgut (AMG) proctodeum or rectum (RE). Proteins extracted...
Little is known about how human disease vectors will modify their life history patterns and survival capacity as a result of climate change. One case that Chagas disease, which has triatomine bugs Trypanosoma cruzi parasite, respectively. This work aimed to determine: (i) the activity prophenoloxidase system (prophenoloxidase phenoloxidase activity, two indicators immune ability) in three intestine regions (anterior midgut, posterior midgutand rectum) bug Meccus pallidipennis under...
La leishmaniasis y la enfermedad de Chagas son causadas por protozoarios que comparten características filogenéticas eco-epidemiológicas comunes, lo cual provoca dificultad en su identificación diagnóstico. El objetivo este trabajo fue analizar información disponible sobre las técnicas T. cruzi, Leishmania spp. coinfección con ambos parásitos, así como impacto obtención datos eco-epidemiológicos. Se realizó una búsqueda sistemática para o ambos. Los estudios se clasificaron agente...
Abstract Background Relatively little is known about how pathogens transmitted by vector insects are affected changing temperatures analogous to those occurring in the present global warming scenario. One expectation that, like their ectothermic vectors, an increase temperature could reduce fitness. Here, we have investigated effect of high on abundance Trypanosoma cruzi parasites during infection Triatoma pallidipennis . Methods We exposed T. nymphs two strains (Morelos and Chilpancingo)...
