Pro-arrhythmogenic effects of Trypanosoma cruzi conditioned medium proteins in a model of bovine chromaffin cells

Asymptomatic sudden death is the principal cause of mortality in Chagas disease. There is little information about molecular mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of malignant arrhythmias in Chagasic patients. Previous studies have involved Trypanosoma cruzi secretion proteins in the genesis of...

There is little information about molecular mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of malignant arrhythmias in Chagasic patients. Previous studies have involved Trypanosoma cruzi secretion proteins in the genesis of arrhythmias ex vivo, but the molecular mechanisms involved are still unresolved.

Conditioned medium was obtained from the co-culture of T. cruzi and Vero cells (African green monkey kidney cells) and ultra-filtered for concentrating immunogenic high molecular weight parasite proteins. Chromaffin cells were assessed with the parasite and Vero cells control medium. Parasite-secreted proteins induce catecholamine secretion in a dose-dependent manner.

There is little information about molecular mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of malignant arrhythmias in Chagasic patients.
