چکیده
Trypanosome infections were sought in 46 non-human primates captured principally in Amazonian Brazil. Twenty-two (47.8%) were infected with four Trypanosoma species: T. cruzi, T. minasense, T. devei and T. rangeli. These preliminary results confirmed the high prevalence and diversity of natural infections with trypanosomes in primates from Brazilian Amazon and were the first formal record of simian infections with trypanosomes in the State of Acre. The presence of T. cruzi-like and T. rangeli-like parasites are recorded in four new hosts.

متن کاملGreen Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Amazon Fruits
In this study, we report the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from extracts of native fruits from Amazonia, Brazil. AgNPs were characterized by UV/Vis and medium infrared (MIR) spectroscopy. Their antimicrobial activities were evaluated against the growth of bacteria and leavers, as well as the evaluation of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal c...

Background: We have recently shown that human embryonic (hESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) can differentiate into advanced spermatogenic cells including round spermatids by in vitro culture (Easley et al., Direct differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into haploid spermatogenic cells. Cell Reports 2, 440-446 2012) and also, in collaboration, that rhesus spermatogonial ...
متن کاملI-4: Male Fertility Preservation Options, Current State-of-The ART and Future Implications
Background Male infertility management has made significant progress during the past three decades, especially after the introduction of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in 1992. However, many boys and men still suffer from primary testicular failure due to acquired or genetic causes. New and novel treatments are needed to address these issues. Spermatogenesis originates from spermatogon...
