Natural programmed cell death in <i>T. cruzi</i> epimastigotes maintained in axenic cultures

30 Jul 2008

Abstract excerpt

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 cell death (PCD) has many functions in development and tissue remodeling in metazoans. In protozoa, it could represent concomitant or alternative mechanisms for clonal selection, immune response...
