Abstract excerpt
Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, presents variable clinical course but the phenomena underlying this variability remain largely unknown. T. cruzi has a clonal population structure and infecting strains are often multiclonal. T. cruzi genetic variability could be a determinant of differential tissue tropism or distribution and consequently of the clinical forms of the disease. We tested...
