All Roads Lead to Cytosol: Trypanosoma cruzi Multi-Strategic Approach to Invasion
T. cruzi has a complex life cycle involving four developmental stages namely, epimastigotes, metacyclic trypomastigotes, amastigotes and bloodstream trypomastigotes. Although trypomastigotes are the infective forms, extracellular amastigotes have also shown the ability to invade host cells. Both sta...
