The Driving of Immune Response by Th1 Adjuvants in Immunization of Mice with Trypanosoma cruzi marinkellei Elicits a Controversial Infection Control.

In previous studies, we have demonstrated that inoculation with a Trypanosoma cruzi marinkellei (avirulent RM1 strain) was able to reduce parasitemia in mice challenged with T. cruzi, although it was not able to prevent histopathological lesions. Th1 response stimulation by immunization is necessary for T.

[Susceptibility to antifungal agents among Cryptococcus neoformans varieties isolated from patients at a university hospital].

This study identified Cryptococcus neoformans varieties isolated from 35 patients at teaching hospital of the Federal University of the Triângulo Mineiro and evaluated the susceptibility to antifungal agents among these samples using the protocol M27-A2 from the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards. The gattii variety was identified in 11.4% of the cases (n = 4).
