Mechanisms of infectivity and evasion derived from microvesicles cargo produced by Trypanosoma cruzi
Cell invasion by the intracellular protozoans requires interaction of proteins from both the host and the parasite. Many parasites establish chronic infections, showing they have the potential to escape the immune system; for example, Trypanosoma cruzi is an intracellular parasite that causes Chagas...
