Full textChagas disease is a parasitic infection (Trypanosoma cruzi) that constitutes a major health problem in Latin America, where 16-18 million people would be infected and 100 million are exposed to the risk of infection. Its diagnosis is difficult because the chronic phase appears after 10-20 years of silent infection. In patients’ sera, antibodies are directed against the parasite glycoprotein cruzipaine. The presence of a sulfated N,N-diacetylchitobiose in high-mannose type oligosaccharides of the C-terminal moiety of Cz has been determined, and the immune response requires the presence of a sulfate group. However, its exact location is still uncertain. During this PhD thesis, we synthesized anionic sugar derivatives, as D-galacturonic acid and sulfated N-acetyl-D-glucosamine derivatives, carrying a 3-aminopropyl linker. Two key disaccharides derived from D-glucosamine have been prepared, allowing the selective sulfation of both units. The sugar derivatives were conjugated to different proteins by reaction with glutaraldehyde. This coupling was shown to be simple, efficient, and compatible with fragile anionic structures as sulfates. The number of sugar residues coupled to the proteins has been determined by Maldi mass spectrometry. The first tests with our conjugates showed the key role of 2-acetamide and 6-sulfate groups for the immune response

Full textNeurological and inflammatory signs associated with immunological alterations are a hallmark of human Africal trypanosomiasis. They include alterations in antibody and nitric oxide (NO) productions. Trypanosomes are highly sensitive to S-nitrosylated compounds. Murine macrophages use oxygen and NO-dependent mechanisms to synthesize S-nitrosylated compounds. Antibodies to NO-epitopes and to tryptophan-like epitopes are present in patient sera. Tryptophan-like epitopes are borne by VSG from trypanosomes of the brucei group and absent on T. Cruzi and T. Musvculi. NO production is insufficient to kill parasites. Induction of arginase represents a new escape mechanism in host immune defence elaborated by parasites. L-arginine stock, essential for NO production, is depleted. Parasite factors inducing arginase are purified by monoclonal antibodies. The identification of these 105 and 70 kDa proteins is in progress

Full textAccording to the World Health Organization, 21 Latin American countries are endemic for Chagas disease, affecting 10 million people. Chagas' disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), is a parasitic illness endemic mostly in Latin America and particularly in Brazil. Despite many experimental studies, there is no efficient treatment against Chagas disease, and the search for new therapeutic targets specific to T. cruziis critical for drug development. In my thesis, I have revisited 41 protein sequences proposed by the analogous enzyme pipeline, and found that it is possible to provide structures for 33 T. cruzisequences with clear homologs or analogs in H. sapiensand likely associated with trypanothione reductase, cysteine synthase and ATPase functions, and structures for sequences specific to T. cruziand absent in H. sapiens associated with 2,4-dienoyl-CoA reductase, and leishmanolysin activities. The implications of our structures refined by atomistic molecular dynamics (monome or dimer states) in their in vitro environments (aqueous solution or membrane bilayers) are discussed for drug development and suggest that all protein targets, except cysteine synthase, merit further investigation
