Biography

Molecular pathogenesis of trichomonosis (cytoadherence, cytotoxicity and haemolysis). Cysteine ​​proteinases (CPs), CP endogenous inhibitors, and adhesins as virulence factors of Trichomonas vaginalis. Autophagy of hydrogenosomes (hydrogenophagy) as a mechanism of protein relocation to the parasite surface. Gene expression regulation by iron and glucose of virulence factors (cysteine ​​and aspartic proteinases, CP inhibitors, and adhesins) of T. vaginalis. Mechanism of posttranscriptional gene regulation by iron mediated by atypical RNA-binding proteins (cytoskeleton associated and stress response proteins). Recombinant virulence factors as potential targets for diagnosis, treatment and vaccine of T. vaginalis infection.
