| Research Abstract |
In Trypanosoma cuzi infected cells, the production of reactive oxygen species including nitric oxide (NO) was increased and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene was up-regulated. The inhibition of apoptosis in infected cells was reduced by the addition of NOS inhibitors. Furthermore, cellular FLICE-like inhibitory protein (c-FLIP), an apoptosis inhibitory protein, was nitrosylated in T. cruzi infected cells.
