2. Evaluation of triterpenes derivatives in the viability of Leishmania amazonensis and Trichomonas vaginalis
Trichomonas vaginalis and Leishmania spp. are protozoal species responsible for millions of cases of parasitic diseases worldwide. Considering the potential of natural products and the need for more effective and less toxic alternatives to treat trichomoniasis and leishmaniasis, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of two series of triterpenes derivatives

3. Morphologic study of the effect of iron on pseudocyst formation in Trichomonas vaginalis and its interaction with human epithelial cells
BACKGROUND Trichomonas vaginalis is the aetiological agent of human trichomoniasis, which is one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases in humans. Iron is an important element for the survival of this parasite and the colonisation of the host urogenital tract. OBJECTIVES In this study, we investigated the effects of iron on parasite prolifera

4. COMPARISON OF PERMANENT STAINING METHODS FOR THE LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS OF TRICHOMONIASIS
Trichomonas vaginalis is the etiologic agent of trichomoniasis, the most common non-viral sexually transmitted disease (STD) in the world. The diagnosis is based on wet mount preparation and direct microscopy on fixed and stained clinical specimens. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of different fixing and staining techniques used in the d

5. Modulatory effect of iron chelators on adenosine deaminase activity and gene expression in Trichomonas vaginalis
Trichomonas vaginalis is a flagellate protozoan that parasitises the urogenital human tract and causes trichomoniasis. During the infection, the acquisition of nutrients, such as iron and purine and pyrimidine nucleosides, is essential for the survival of the parasite. The enzymes for purinergic signalling, including adenosine deaminase (ADA), which degrades

6. Interaction of Trichomonas vaginalis and Tritrichomonas foetus with keratin: an important role in parasite infection
Trichomonas vaginalis and Tritrichomonas foetus are human and bovine parasites, respectively, that provoke the sexually transmitted disease trichomoniasis. These extracellular parasites adhere to the host epithelial cell surface. Although mucinases and proteases have been described as important proteins for parasite adhesion to epithelial cells, no studies h

7. Trichomoniasis is a non-viral sexually transmitted disease most common in the world. The current treatment of this disease includes the use of several drugs, including herbal remedies formulated with Mentha crispa have also been used as protozoan The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of herbal medicine containing Mentha crispa in patients with vaginal trichomoniasis. The study was a randomized clinical trial, parallel and opened. It included 60 female volunteers, 35 from Fortaleza - Ceara and 25 from Sinop - Mato Grosso, who had stool examination of vaginal discharge positive for trichomoniasis. Patients were randomly distributed in two treatment groups, the Mentha crispa group and the Secnidazole group. Both groups were composed of 30 volunteers, in which, respectively, 2 tablets of 12 mg of herbal Giamebil and 2 tablets 1000mg Secnidal  were orally administered in single dose. The clinical trial consisted of three steps: pretreatment, treatment and post-treatment. To significance level of 5%, no difference was found between the groups (P = 0.6120), because the proportion of volunteers with no T.vaginalis in the Secnidazole group was 96.67% and the proportion found in the Mentha crispa group was 90.00%. Secondary endpoints for the evaluation of the effectiveness of Mentha crispa in the treatment of trichomoniasis were the improvement of clinical complaints: vaginal discharge, unpleasant odor, genital burning, dysuria, dyspareunia, pelvic pain and itching. It has not been demonstrated statistically significant difference (P = 0 , 4583) between the treatments in the proportion of patients who reported no such complaints. The drugs were considered well tolerated, as no voluntary needed additional pharmacological intervention in order to control or eradicate such discomfort. Therefore, adverse events were assessed as being mild, manifesting itself only once and having spontaneous remission. However, adverse effects were significantly higher (P = 0.0006) in the Secnidazole group (66.67%) than those found in the Mentha crispa group (20.00%). Adverse events reported by volunteers Secnidazole group were nausea (16.67%), the unpleasant odor in the urine (3.33%) and metallic taste, that was cited by 50% of patients and it showed a statistically significant difference between the treatment groups (P <0.001). The referred events by the volunteers of the Mentha crispa group were: epigastric pain, nausea, vomiting and headache reported by 3.33%, while unpleasant taste was mentioned by 6.67%. No signs of clinical toxicity was observed during treatment. This trial concluded that the herbal medicine containing Mentha crispa showed efficacy and safety when used orally at a dose of 24mg, presenting itself as an alternative therapy safe, effective, accessible and with quality for treatment in patients with trichomoniasis. / Estudo comparativo, randomizado para avaliar a eficÃcia terapÃutica da Mentha crispa e do secnidazol no tratamento da tricomonÃase
