摘要
This paper summarizes recent data from the literature suggesting that transforming growth factor-P (TGF-beta) participates at least in four different processes influencing development of myocardiopathy in Chagas disease, a major parasitic illness caused by Trypanosoma cruzi infection: (a) invasion of cardiac fibroblasts and myocytes; (b) intracellular parasite cycle; (c) regulation of inflammation and immune response; (d) fibrosis and heart remodeling during acute and chronic disease. All these effects point to an important role of TGF-beta in Chagas 7 disease myocardiopathy and suggest that monitoring the circulating levels of this cytokine could be of help in clinical prognosis and management of patients. Moreover, TGF-beta-interfering therapies appear as interesting adjuvant interventions during acute and chronic phases of T cruzi infection. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
