Trypanosoma rangeli expresses a gene of the group II trans-sialidase superfamily
(Molecular & Biochemical Parasitology 142 (2005), 2005)
Expression of fluorescent genes in trypanosoma cruzi and trypanosoma rangeli (Kinetoplastida: Trypanosomatidae): Its application to parasite-vector biology
(Journal of Medical Entomology 42(1), 2005-01)
Predominance of lineage I among Trypanosoma cruzi isolates from Venezuelan patients with different clinical profiles of acute Chagas’ disease
(Tropical Medicine and International Health. volume 9 no 12, december 2004, 2004-12)
Trypanosoma cruzi isolates from 23 acute chagasic patients from localities of Western Venezuela (state
of Barinas) where Chagas’ disease is endemic were typed using ribosomal and mini-exon gene markers.
Results showed that ...
Detection of trypanosoma cruzi and trypanosoma rangeli infection by duplex PCR assay based on telomeric sequences
(CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC LABORATORY IMMUNOLOGY, Sept. 2003, 2003-09)
Detection of Leishmania causing visceral Leishmaniasis in the old and new worlds by a polymerase chain reaction assay based on telomeric sequences
(Am. J. Trop. Med. Hyg., 65(5), 2001, 2001)
We present a new polymerase chain reaction assay based on telomeric sequences of Leishmania donovani.
When this assay was used in dilutions of purified L. donovani DNA, a strong amplification signal was observed
with 1 fg ...
Detection and significance of inapparent infection in chagas disease in western Venezuela
(Am. J. Trop. Med. Hyg., 65(3), 2001, 2001)
Inapparent infections of Trypanosoma cruzi were detected in symptomless seropositive people living
in close proximity, and under the same conditions of risk, to patients with acute Chagas disease. Similar
infections were ...
Acute chagas’ disease in western Venezuela: A clinical, seroparasitologic, and epidemiologic study
(The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1999-02)
A clinical, parasitologic, and serologic study carried out between 1988 and 1996 on 59 acute-phase
patients in areas of western Venezuela where Chagas’ disease is endemic showed 19 symptomatic patterns or groups
of symptoms ...
Myocardial parasite persistence in chronic chagasic patients
(Am. J. Trop. Med. Hyg., 60(5), 1999, 1999)
The persistence of Trypanosoma cruzi tissue forms was detected in the myocardium of seropositive individuals clinically diagnosed as chronic chagasic patients following endomyocardial biopsies (EMBs) processed by ...
