Cellular invasion by Trypanosoma cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes (MTs) or tissue culture trypomastigotes (TCTs) is a complex process involving host-parasite cellular and molecular interactions. Particularly, the involvement of host cell actin cytoskeleton during trypomastigote invasion is poorly investigated, and still, the results are controversial. In the present work, we compare side by side both trypomastigote forms and employ state-of-the-art live-cell imaging showing for the first time th ...[more]
