The manuscript concerns a fundamental and controversial question in Trypanosoma brucei biology and the parasite life cycle, providing further evidence that slender bloodstream forms can indeed infect ...
It’s official: the only Australian shrew is no more. The latest edition of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s Red List, the world’s most comprehensive global inventory on ...
The news was premature, perhaps, but too good to keep. Though they pointedly avoided any claim that they had found a cure for cancer, two Russian doctors last week made a cautious progress report on a ...
A new study by LMU and Helmholtz Munich shows how the pathogen Trypanosoma brucei controls changes in its cell surface to evade the immune system. Using a highly sensitive single-cell RNA sequencing ...
A new study by LMU and Helmholtz Munich shows how pathogens control changes in their cell surface to evade the immune system. The immune system responds to an infection by producing antibodies that ...
The immune system responds to an infection by producing antibodies that recognize and bind to the cell surface of the pathogen, thus marking it as an intruder and triggering an immune response. For ...

ABSTRACT: Background: Social determinants of health (SDOH) significantly influence diseases with environmental components, like vector-borne parasitic diseases. This study aims to examine how these ...
The parasite Trypanosoma brucei can exploit antigenic variation of its VSG coat proteins to avoid detection by the mammalian host. In the December 13 Nature, Miguel Navarro and Keith Gull from the ...
Methods are lacking for controlling the spread of disease among humans and livestock in sub-Saharan Africa. Now, a new insight into how tsetse flies mate could bolster the arsenal of tools to manage ...
New treatments aim for a gene variant causing the illness in people of sub-Saharan African descent. Some experts worry that focus will neglect other factors. By Gina Kolata In a Zoom call this spring ...
