Trypanosoma Cruzi Presenilin-like Transmembrane Aspartyl Protease: Characterization and Cellular Localization

2020-10-16

Abstract excerpt

The increasing detection of infections of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease, in non-endemic regions beyond Latin America has risen to be a major public health issue. With an impact in the millions of people, current treatments rely on antiquated drugs that produce severe side effects and are considered nearly ineffective for the chronic phase. The minimal progress in the development of new...
