The fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is thermodimorphic and the etiological agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, a systemic mycosis endemic in Latin America. Studies aiming to characterize the immune response of the infected host have given attention to the role of subpopulations of CD4+ cells, focusing on mechanisms involved in induction of one or other subpopulation, associated in the m…
Chagas disease (CD) is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi). It is a neglected disease and considered a serious public health problem. It is endemic in Latin America, where there are still approximately 10 million people infected and over 25 million living in risk areas. The CD has two phases, acute, which lasts 2 to 4 months and is characterized by high parasitemia. Most …

The dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (P. brasiliensis) is the etiologic agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a systemic mycosis that is endemic in Latin America. Studies aiming to characterize the immune response in PCM have turned to the understanding of the role of antigen-presenting cells since the fine regulation of this response is due, in large part, to the initial i…
The thermodimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (Pb) is the etiological agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) a systemic mycosis endemic in Latin America. Studies aiming to characterize the immune response of the infected host have focused on the role of different subpopulations of CD4+ cells, with special interest for the mechanisms involved in the induction of one or other subp…
