Entry of Trypanosoma cruzi into eukaryotic cells
Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi invades a variety of mammalian cells by receptor-ligand interactions. In this review two T. cruzi carbohydrate-binding proteins, neuraminidase/trans-sialidase and penetrin, are discussed as possibly playing a role in parasite entry into mammalian cells.
