Castillo Rivas, Christian; Muñoz Villanueva, Lorena; Carrillo Werner, Ileana; Liempi Manquel, Ana; Gallardo Arce, Christian; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Maya Arango, Juan; Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike (Wiley, 2017-07)ProblemTrypanosoma cruzi and Toxoplasma gondii present, respectively, low and high congenital transmission rates. The placenta as an immune regulatory organ expresses TLRs, leading to the secretion of cytokines. Both ...

Ormeno, Fernando; Barrientos, Camila; Ramírez, Santiago; Ponce, Iván; Valenzuela, Lucía; Sepúlveda, Sofía; Bitar, Maina; Ulrike Kemmerling, Weis; Machado, Carlos Renato; Cabrera Vallejos, Gonzalo; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (Public Library Science, 2016-06-10)Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas' disease, presents three cellular forms (trypomastigotes, epimastigotes and amastigotes), all of which are submitted to oxidative species in its hosts. However, T. cruzi ...

Sepúlveda, S.; Valenzuela, L.; Ponce, I.; Sierra, S.; Bahamondes, P.; Ramirez, S.; Rojas, V.; Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Cabrera, G. (2014)Trypanosoma cruzi is the etiological agent of Chagas disease. The parasite has to overcome oxidative damage by ROS/RNS all along its life cycle to survive and to establish a chronic infection. We propose that T. cruzi is ...

Toro, G. Cecilia; Wernstedt, Christer; Areche Medina, Carlos; Jaramillo, Nicolás; Hellman, Ulf; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (1992)Trypanosoma cruzi presents six histones electrophoretically resolved in three gel systems. Indirect evidence shows that one of these histones, name, corresponds to H4 in other species. We present evidence that histones is ...

Lorenzatto, Karina Rodrigues; Monteiro, Karina Mariante; Paredes, Rodolfo; Paludo, Gabriela Prado; Da Fonsêca, Marbella Maria; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Zaha, Arnaldo; Ferreira, Henrique Bunselmeyer (2012)Glycolytic enzymes, such as fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) and enolase, have been described as complex multifunctional proteins that may perform non-glycolytic moonlighting functions, but little is known about such ...

Morales, Mónica; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Oñate, Eddie; Imschenetzky, Maria (1992)HMG‐like chromosomal proteins from Truypansoma cruzi were studies. Four HMG‐like proteins, designated HMG A, HMGA‐B, HMG‐C, and HMG‐E, were isolated and found to have molecular weights of 35.5 kd, 27.5 kd, 21.8 kd and 10.4 ...

Markoski, Melissa M.; Bizarro, Cristiano V.; Farias, Sandra; Espinoza, Ingrid; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Zaha, Arnaldo; Ferreira, Henrique B. (2003)Mesocestoides corti is a suitable model for studying cestode development because of its ability to reproduce asexually and segment in vitro. The cultured parasite is also capable of sexual differentiation and, probably, ...

Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike; Bosco Becerra, Cleofina; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (Society of Biology of Chile, 2010)Chagas' disease is produced by the haemophlagelated protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by haematophages insects such as Triatoma infestans (vinchuca). Due to vector control, congenital transmission gains importance ...

Benítez, Diego; Casanova, Gabriela; Cabrera, Gonzalo; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Cerecetto, Hugo; González, Mercedes (Cambridge University Press, 2014)Chagas disease, endemic in 21 countries across Latin America, kills more people in the region each year than any other parasite-borne disease. Therapeutic options have problems ranging from toxicity, poor efficacy, drug ...

Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike; Cabrera, G. F.; Campos, E. O.; Inestrosa, Nibaldo C.; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (WILEY-LISS, 2006-02)The nervous system of flatworms is quite simple although there is increasing evidence indicating that it is chemically complex. Studies of the nervous system in these animals have only been performed in the larval stage ...

Cabrera, G.; Espinoza, I.; Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (2010)Mesocestodes corti has the capacity to develop from the tetrathyridium (larva) stage to adult worm in vitro by trypsin and serum stimulation. Consequently, it has been used as an experimental model system for studying ...

Maya Arango, Juan; Cassels Niven, Bruce; Iturriaga-Vásquez, Patricio; Ferreira, Jorge; Faúndez, Mario; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Ferreira Vigouroux, Luis Arturo; Morello Casté, Antonio (2007)Current knowledge of the biochemistry of Trypanosonta cruzi has led to the development of new drugs and the understanding of their mode of action. Some trypanocidal drugs such as nifurtimox and benznidazole act through ...

Jiménez, V.; Paredes, R.; Sosa, M. A.; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2008-10-15)Trypanosoma cruzi, a parasitic protozoan, is the agent of Chagas' disease or American trypanosomiasis, an endemic pathology in Latin America, affecting up to 18 million people, with high public health costs. Programmed ...

Barrera, Patricia A.; Jimenez-Ortiz, Verónica; Tonn, Carlos; Giordano, Oscar; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Sosa, Miguel A. (2008)In this paper, the effects of 3 natural sesquiterpene lactones, i.e., helenalin (Hln), mexicanin (Mxc), and dehydroleucodine (DhL), were evaluated using cultured Leishmania mexicana promastigotes. It was observed that the ...

Toso M., Alberto; Vial U., Felipe; Galanti Garrone, Norbel (2011)The traditional transmission pathways of Chagas' disease are vectorial, transfusional, transplacental and organ transplantation. However, oral transmission is gaining importance. The first evidence of oral transmission was ...
