α-Gal immunization positively impacts Trypanosoma cruzi colonization of heart tissue in a mouse model.
Chagas disease, caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is considered endemic in more than 20 countries but lacks both an approved vaccine and limited treatment for its chronic stage. Chronic infection is most harmful to human health because of long-term parasitic infection of the heart. Here we s...
