COMPARATIVE PROTEOMIC ANALYSIS OF THE HEMOLYMPH AND SALIVARY GLANDS OF RHODNIUS PROLIXUS AND R. COLOMBIENSIS REVEALS CANDIDATES ASSOCIATED WITH DIFFERENTIAL LYTIC ACTIVITY AGAINST TRYPANOSOMA CRUZI DM28C AND T. CRUZI Y.

Comparative proteomic analysis of the hemolymph and salivary glands of Rhodnius prolixus and R. colombiensis reveals candidates associated with differential lytic activity against Trypanosoma cruzi Dm28c and T. cruzi Y.

BackgroundImmune response of triatomines plays an important role in the success or failure of transmission of T.cruzi.Studies on parasite-vector interaction have shown the presence of trypanolytic factors and have been observed to be differentially expressed among triatomines, which affects the transmission of some T.cruzi strains or DTUs (Discrete
