1. Clinical and therapeutic aspects of an outbreak of canine trypanosomiasis
Resumo A tripanossomíase causada por Trypanosoma evansi pode acometer gravemente os animais domésticos e selvagens. Este artigo relata um surto de tripanossomíase canina em uma fazenda na região do Pantanal, Brasil. Na fazenda havia 38 cães, 20 dos quais morreram antes de receber cuidados veterinários. Os 18 cães restantes foram submetidos a anamnese,

2. Reatividade de "tripanosomatídeos inferiores": B. culicis, C. deanei, C. fasciculata, C. luciliae, H. samuelpessoai, L. seymouri, P. serpens e W. inconstans com anticorpos de hospedeiros humanos e cães infectados com Leishmania sp. e T. cruzi. / Reactivity of "lower trypanosomatids" : B. culicis, C. deanei, C. fasciculata, C. luciliae, H. samuelpessoai, L. seymouri, P. serpens and W. inconstans with anti-Leishmania sp. and anti-T. cruzi antibodies from human and canine hosts.
"Lower trypanosomatids", that infect plant and insect, present biochemical and molecular similarities to Leishmania sp. and Trypanosoma cruzi. Antigenic similarities between those parasites are known for a long time, but only few comparative investigations about immune humoral cross-reaction were described. In the current work we analyze the cross-immunoreac

3. Ocorrência de Trypanosoma vivax no estado de Minas Gerais
A cow from Igarapé city, Minas Gerais state, Brazil, showing vision damage was referred at the Veterinary Hospital of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. Clinical examination revealed anemia and a flagellated protozoan was observed in the blood smears obtained from the animal. The morphometric analysis demonstrated that the protozoan was Trypanosoma v

4. Influence of source and quantity of protein on the development of immunity and resistance to African trypanosomiasis.
Although it is well documented that severe protein deprivation inhibits the development of the immune response and exacerbates certain infections, little has been done to study the effects of native diets on endemic diseases or immunity. Therefore, protein-restricted diets were formulated for mice to mimic the sources and amounts measured in human diets of t

5. Suppression of Cell-Mediated Immunity in Experimental African Trypanosomiasis
Adult New Zealand white rabbits were experimentally infected with a parasitic African hemoflagellate, Trypanosoma congolense, and were subsequently tested for in vivo and in vitro aspects of cell-mediated immune function. Chronically infected rabbits were sensitized to mycobacterial protein and skin-tested with purified protein derivative; all infected anima

6. Murine Trypanosomiasis: Cellular Proliferation and Functional Depletion in the Blood, Peritoneum, and Spleen Related to Changes in Bone Marrow Stem Cells
Previous reports have described profound effects on the function of the lymphoid system, especially the spleen, in mice infected with Trypanosoma brucei. This study provides further evidence of major change in the cell populations of the blood, peritoneum, and bone marrow, but shows that at least some of the stem cells of the bone marrow survive the damage c
