Patterns of avian malaria in tropical and temperate environments : testing the ...
Itabaiana, Yasmine Antonini; Lobato, Débora Nogueira Campos; Norte, Ana Cláudia; Ramos, Jaime Albino; Moreira, Patrícia de Abreu; Braga, Érika MartinsAccording to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH) the spread of invasive species will be facilitated by release from their enemies as they occupy new areas. However, the ERH has rarely been tested by comparing populations of native (non-invasive, long established) species with expanding or shifting ranges, to the same species as invasive in another area. We tested the ERH with respect to blood parasite levels (pr...
Hematological and parasitological health conditions of the Pale-breasted Thrush...
Lobato, Débora Nogueira Campos; Braga, Érika Martins; Belo, Nayara de O.; Antonini, YasmineFrom an ecological point of view, parasites are considered important selective forces that influence all aspects of a host’s life. The purpose of this study was to assess the health state of Turdus leucomelas Vieillot, 1818 (Turdidae: Passeriformes) inhabiting a Brazilian Cerrado in the breeding and molting seasons through a hematological parameter analysis and an evaluation of infection by blood parasites. The...

Queiroz, Norinne Lacerda; Lima, Onésia Cristina Oliveira; Carneiro, Cláudia Martins; Vilela, Márcia de Carvalho; Teixeira, Antônio LúcioMalaria is second only to tuberculosis as the leading cause of morbidity and mortality as a consequence of a single infectious agent. Much of the pathology of malaria arises from the inappropriate or excessive immune response mounted by the host in an attempt to eliminate the parasite. We here report the inflammatory changes observed in the cerebral microvasculature of C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice that had been inoc...
