Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi is the parasite that causes Chagas disease. Recently it was proposed that its genome is organized in two compartments: the central compartment - composed of highly conserved genes, and the disruptive compartment - composed of rapidly evolving genes, such as trans-sialidase, mucins and MASP virulence genes. Our group showed enrichment of histone H2B variant (H2B.V), a mar…

Abstract
Inflammasome is a multiproteic complex that assists the activation of various inflammatory caspases in response to environmental signals or the entry of pathogens into a cell. Soon after the recognition of the ligand, the inflammasome complex is formed and promote the cleavage of pro-IL-1b, pro-IL-18 and gasdermin D. The activation of the inflammasome leads to cytokine secretion and infla…
