Abstract
During the immune response against different classes of microoganisms several intracellular signaling pathways are activated, including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases-dependent pathways. The PI3K-delta, a member of class IA PI3Ks and the PI3K-gamma, the unique member of class IB PI3Ks, are expressed mainly in hematopoietic cells and they are important for development of immune response in…

Abstract
Chagas disease, caused by infection with the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), is an important cause of heart disease in Latin America, where is endemic. After recognition by immune cells, parasite activates several intracellular signals including activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks) signaling. When it occurs, PI3K pathway activates, among others downstream signaling…
