Signaling and host cell invasion by Trypanosoma cruzi.

B A Burleigh1, N W Andrews.   

Abstract

Signal transduction events triggered in mammalian host cells by the obligate intracellular parasite Trypanosoma cruzi are required for invasion. Infective T. cruzi trypomastigotes elicit Ca2+ signaling in mammalian host cells and activate transforming growth factor-beta receptor signaling pathways. The elevation of Ca2+ in T. cruzi, induced by host-cell contact, is also required for invasion, extending the concept of host-pathogen 'cross-talk' to invasive protozoan pathogens.
