Congenital transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi is an important source of new Chagas
infections worldwide. The mechanisms of congenital transmission remain poorly …

Chagas disease is a widespread neglected disease in Latin America. Trypanosoma cruzi,
the causative agent of the disease, is currently subdivided into six DTUs (discrete typing …

Triatomines (kissing bugs) and tsetse flies (genus: Glossina) are natural vectors of
Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei, respectively. T. cruzi is the causative agent of …

Chagas disease, considered a neglected disease, was initially confined to rural localities in
endemic areas; however, in recent years through the process of urbanization and migration …

The objective of this study was to provide information on Trypanosoma cruzi genetic
diversity among isolates obtained from different biological sources circulating in endemic …

(1) Background: Chagas disease is the main neglected tropical disease in America. It is
estimated that around 6 million people are currently infected with the parasite in Latin …

Triatoma sanguisuga is one of the major vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi in the southeastern
