Enteric Neuronal Damage, Intramuscular Denervation and Smooth Muscle Phenotype Changes as Mechanisms of Chagasic Megacolon: Evidence from a Long-Term Murine Model of Tripanosoma cruzi Infection

Camila França Campos, Sílvia Dantas Cangussú, Ana Luiza Cassin Duz, Christiane Teixeira Cartelle et autres

We developed a novel murine model of long-term infection with Trypanosoma cruzi with the aim to elucidate the pathogenesis of megacolon and the associated adaptive and neuromuscular intestinal disorders. Our intent was to produce a chronic stage of the disease since the …

The TcI and TcII Trypanosoma cruzi experimental infections induce distinct immune responses and cardiac fibrosis in dogs

Ana Luiza Cassin Duz, Paula Melo de Abreu Vieira, Bruno Mendes Roatt, Rodrigo Dian de Oliveira Aguiar‐Soares et autres

Trypanosoma cruzi infection may be caused by different strains with distinct discrete typing units (DTUs) that can result in variable clinical forms of chronic Chagas disease. The present study evaluates the immune response and cardiac lesions in dogs experimentally infected with different …

Low and high-dose intradermal infection with Leishmania majorand Leishmania amazonensis in C57BL/6 mice

Denise Fonseca Côrtes, Matheus Batista Heitor Carneiro, Liliane Martins dos Santos, Talita Correia de Oliveira Souza et autres

A model of skin infection with Leishmania amazonensis with low doses of parasites is compared to infection with high doses of L. amazonensis and low and high doses of Leishmania major. C57BL/6 mice were infected with 10³ or 10(6) parasites in the …
