This review focused on potential regulatory mechanisms of Trichomonas vaginalis virulence
properties, cytoadherence, cytotoxicity, phagocytosis, hemolysis, induction of apoptosis, and …

Human trichomonosis, infection with Trichomonas vaginalis, is the most common non-viral
sexually transmitted disease in the world. The host-parasite interaction and …

We focus on the iron response of Trichomonas vaginalis to gene family products such as the
cysteine proteinases (CPs) involved in virulence properties. In particular, we examined the …

Infections with protozoa parasites are associated with high burdens of morbidity and
mortality across the developing world. Despite extensive efforts to control the transmission of …

The goal of this paper was to characterize a Trichomonas vaginalis cysteine proteinase (CP)
legumain‐1 (TvLEGU‐1) and determine its potential role as a virulence factor during T …

Gene duplication is an important evolutionary mechanism and no eukaryote has more
duplicated gene families than the parasitic protist Trichomonas vaginalis. Iron is an essential …

Trichomonas vaginalis is the etiologic agent of trichomonosis, the most common non-viral
sexually transmitted disease worldwide. This infection is associated with several health …

Sequences and structures within the terminal genomic regions of plus-strand RNA viruses
are targets for the binding of host proteins that modulate functions such as translation, RNA …

Several cysteine proteinases (CPs) participate in the virulence of Trichomonas vaginalis.
One of them is a 65kDa CP, CP65, involved in cytotoxicity. The aim of this work was to …

The Trichomonas vaginalis 120 kDa protein adhesin (AP120) is induced under iron-rich
conditions and has sequence homology with pyruvate: ferredoxin oxidoreductase A (PFO A) …
