SUMMARY.
The connective matrix participates directly in early pathological events observed in the
cutaneous lesion of leishmaniasis, due to Leishmania braziliensis guyanensis. A sample of

Circulation and behaviour of two major clones of Trypanosoma cruzi in Bolivian cycles
(Mem. Inst. Oswaldo Cruz, 1996-11)
On the basis of isoenzyme studies and population genetic interpretation (Tibayrenc et al. Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA, 83 : 115-119, 1986), we have previously designed a molecular identification tool of two major clones of ...

Field application of polymerase chain reaction diagnosis and strain typing of Trypanosoma cruzi in Bolivian triatomines
(Am. J. Trop. Med. Hyg., 1995)
Abstract.
A new approach for direct identification and characterization of Trypanosoma cruzi stocks in biological samples was tested for field applicability on an extensive sample of feces collected from triatomine vectors ...
Dietary intake and physical activity of Bolivian schollboys at high altitude

El incremento dc la prevalencia de Ia leishmaniasis cutáneo-mucusa en zonas tropicales de nuestro país (1). Así como la resistencia terapeútica de esta forma de leishmaniasis, hacen que sea imprescindible la realización ...
Enzymatic variability and phylogenetic relatedness among Triatoma infestans, T. platensis, T. delpontei and T. rubrovaria
(Heredity, 1996)
Four congeneric species of triatomine bugs, Triatoma platensis, T. delpontei, T. rubrovaria and T. infestans, were examined by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis. These four species are distributed sympatrically throughout ...
Adrenergic system in high altitude residents
(Int. J Sports. Med, 1992)
Abstract.
Heart rate (HR) response to isoproterenol (ISO) infusion (IP) is decreased in normal sea level (SL) natives exposed to high altitude (HA). Since norepinephrine plasma concentration is higher in HA hypoxia, a ...
