    • A local innate immune response against Trypanosoma cruzi in the human placenta: The epithelial turnover of ... 
      Liempi Manquel, Ana; Castillo Varela, Christian; Carrillo Werner, Ileana; Muñoz Clavijo, Lorena; Droguett Ossa, Daniel; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Maya Arango, Juan; Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike (Academic Press, 2016)
      Congenital Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is partially responsible for the progressive globalization of Chagas disease despite of its low transmission rate. The probability of congenital transmission depends ...
    • Caspase-8 activity is part of the BeWo trophoblast cell defense mechanisms against Trypanosoma cruzi infection 
      Carrillo Werner, Ileana; Droguett Ossa, Daniel; Castillo Varela, Christian; Liempi Manquel, Ana; Muñoz Clavijo, Lorena; Maya Arango, Juan; Galanti Garrone, Norbel; Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike (Academic Press-Elsevier, 2016)
      Congenital Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi that must cross the placental barrier during transmission. The trophoblast constitutes the first tissue in contact with the maternal-blood ...
    • Ex vivo infection of human placental chorionic villi explants with Trypanosoma cruzi and Toxoplasma gondii ... 
      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 ...
    • Notch receptor expression in Trypanosoma cruzi‐infected human umbilical vein endothelial cells treated with ... 
      Campos Estrada, Carolina; González Herrera, Fabiola; Greif, Gonzalo; Carrillo Werner, Ileana; Guzmán Rivera, Daniela; Liempi Manquel, Ana; Robello, Carlos; Kemmerling Weis, Ulrike; Castillo Rivas, Christian; Maya Arango, Juan Diego (Wiley, 2020)
      Chagas disease is a vector-borne disease caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. Current therapy involves benznidazole. Benznidazole and other drugs can modify gene expression patterns, improving the response ...
