Synthesis of proline derived benzenesulfonamides: A potent anti-Trypanosoma brucei gambiense agent.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thousands of death in Africa and other developing nations are still attributed to trypanosomiasis. Excessive sleep has been associated with increased inflammation. We report herein, the synthesis, antitrypanosomal and anti-inflammatory activities of eight new carboxamide derivatives bearing

Proline racemases are conserved mitogens: characterization of a Trypanosoma vivax proline racemase.

Only registered users can translate articles

Trypanosoma cruzi proline racemases (TcPRAC) are the only eukaryotic proline racemases described so far. Except their role in the interconversion of free L- and D-proline enantiomers, parasite TcPRACs are involved in major T. cruzi biological pathways. These essential enzymes are implicated in the

Experimental "chronic" African trypanosomiasis: endocrine dysfunctions generated by parasitic components released during the tryptanolytic phase in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The disorders of the gonadotropic axis have been studied during the course of a "chronic" african trypanosomiasis induced experimentally in rats inoculated by the variant Trypanosoma brucei brucei AnTat 1.1.E. The levels of serum and pituitary LH as well as serum testosterone and corticosterone have

A B-cell mitogen from a pathogenic trypanosome is a eukaryotic proline racemase.

Lymphocyte polyclonal activation is a generalized mechanism of immune evasion among pathogens. In a mouse model of Trypanosoma cruzi infection (American trypanosomiasis), reduced levels of polyclonal lymphocyte responses correlate with resistance to infection and cardiopathy. We report here the

Alteration of free serum amino acids in voles infected with Trypanosoma brucei gambiense.

Only registered users can translate articles

Free serum amino acid pools of field voles, Microtus montanus, were determined over a 24 hr period, and compared to values obtained from voles infected with Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. The majority of amino acids in the control animals demonstrated a diurnal variation, peaking predominantly during

Trypanosoma brucei: chemical evidence that cathepsin L is essential for survival and a relevant drug target.

Only registered users can translate articles

The protozoan parasite causing human African trypanosomiasis, Trypanosoma brucei, displays cysteine peptidase activity, the chemical inhibition of which is lethal to the parasite. This activity comprises a cathepsin B (TbCATB) and a cathepsin L (TbCATL). Previous RNA interference (RNAi) data suggest

Trypanosoma brucei PRMT1 Is a Nucleic Acid Binding Protein with a Role in Energy Metabolism and the Starvation Stress Response.

Only registered users can translate articles

In Trypanosoma brucei and related kinetoplastid parasites, transcription of protein coding genes is largely unregulated. Rather, mRNA binding proteins, which impact processes such as transcript stability and translation efficiency, are the predominant regulators of gene expression. Arginine

Comparative salivary proteomics analysis of children with and without dental caries using the iTRAQ/MRM approach.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Dental caries is a major worldwide oral disease afflicting a large proportion of children. As an important host factor of caries susceptibility, saliva plays a significant role in the occurrence and development of caries. The aim of the present study was to characterize the healthy and

Deoxyhypusine Modification of Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 5A (eIF5A) Is Essential for Trypanosoma brucei Growth and for Expression of Polyprolyl-containing Proteins.

Only registered users can translate articles

The eukaryotic protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei is the causative agent of human African trypanosomiasis. Polyamine biosynthesis is essential in T. brucei, and the polyamine spermidine is required for synthesis of a novel cofactor called trypanothione and for deoxyhypusine modification of
