Gap junction distribution is altered between cardiac myocytes infected with Trypanosoma cruzi.

1 Apr 1992

Abstract excerpt

Conduction disturbances frequently accompany both acute and chronic Chagas' disease. To explore the possibility that changes in gap junction distribution or abundance might play a role in these disturbances, we have investigated intercellular communication between rat neonatal cardiac myocytes in cultures infected with Trypanosoma cruzi. Contractile activity of infected cells was characterized by regional...
