Abstract

Oral transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi has gained relevance because of its association with high morbidity and lethality rates. This transmission route is responsible for maintaining the infection of the parasite in sylvatic cycles, and human cases have been associated mainly with the consumption of food contaminated with triatomine feces or didelphid secretions. Several ecological changes allow the intrusion of sylvatic reservoirs and triatomines to the domestic environments with subsequent food contamination. Here, high-resolution molecular tools were used to detect and genotype T. cruzi across humans, reservoirs, and insect vectors in 2 acute outbreaks of presumptive oral transmission in eastern Colombia.

摘要

克氏锥虫的经口传播因其与高发病率和致死率相关而受到关注。这种传播途径在维持寄生虫在野生环境中的感染方面起着重要作用,而人类感染病例主要与食用被锥蝽粪便或负鼠分泌物污染的食物有关。多种生态变化使得野生宿主和锥蝽侵入家庭环境,进而造成食物污染。在此,我们运用高分辨率分子工具,对哥伦比亚东部2起疑似经口传播的急性疫情中的人类、宿主和昆虫媒介进行克氏锥虫的检测和基因分型。
