Chagas cardiomyopathy is the most severe chronic manifestation and leading cause of mortality in disease. Chronic inflammation, resulting from persistent infection by T. cruzi , leads to continuous immune system activation patients with The knowledge immunological aspects can be important for identification biomarkers capable indicating parasitological cure or clinical progression provides physician’s valuable tools improved evaluation. Soluble cell adhesion molecules (sCAMs) have been...

Arthrospira platensis, an ancient cyanobacterium, is rich in bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential, supporting its use studies for various health conditions, including infectious and chronic diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the antiparasitic, cytotoxic, immunomodulatory activities of A. platensis against Trypanosoma cruzi. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) T. cruzi trypomastigotes were cultured cytotoxic antiparasitic analyses. Cytotoxicity was assessed PBMC treated...

Trypanosoma cruzi is a parasite with high capacity to adapt the host. Animal models have already demonstrated that tropism of this occurs not only in cardiac/digestive tissues but also adipose tissue (AT). That said, consequences T. infection for AT and implications treatment Benzonidazole are under discussion. Here, we tested hypothesis upon (Bz) interaction mononuclear immune cells (PBMC) influences relative expression ACAT1, FASN, PNPLA2 genes. Thus, stem derived from (ADSC) after...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence chicken nuggets packaging attributes on Brazilian consumer purchase intention. Focus group technique employed in order identify relevant characteristics. Forty consumers were interviewed six sessions where five different types evaluated. After identifying most parameters for (color, picture, brand, and price), impact each characteristic (factor) intent conjoint analysis applied 100 data. Eight stimuli (labels) prepared by combining two...

Due to the limitations of Chagas disease therapy, microalgae can be promising in search new trypanocidal compounds, since these organisms produce bioactive compounds with large pharmaceutical applications, including antiparasitic effects. In this work, activity aqueous extract Tetradesmus obliquus and, for first time, Chlorella vulgaris, were evaluated against trypomastigote forms Trypanosoma cruzi. addition, cytotoxic Vero cells was evaluated. Our results showed that C. vulgaris and T....
