lüll Immunology of Chagas disease äBull World Health Organ 1974[]; 50 (5): 459-72After reviewing present knowledge of the morphology, multiplication, and transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi, this Memorandum discusses the animal models that may be of value in understanding the immune mechanisms operating in Chagas' disease. The role of both circulating antibody and cell-mediated immunity in protection against the parasite is discussed, together with the possibility that immunopathological mechanisms may be responsible for some of the lesions found in patients with Chagas' disease. The immunodiagnostic methods at present available are also reviewed, and the possibility of producing a vaccine for human use is considered in the light of recent findings in experimental animals. A series of recommendations for further research is included.|Animals[MESH]|Antibodies[MESH]|Antibody Formation[MESH]|Chagas Disease/*immunology/transmission[MESH]|Complement Fixation Tests[MESH]|Disease Models, Animal[MESH]|Disease Vectors[MESH]|Dogs[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immunity, Cellular[MESH]|Immunoglobulin G[MESH]|Immunoglobulin M[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Trypanosoma cruzi/growth & development/immunology[MESH]|Vaccination[MESH] |
