Chloroquine inhibits artificial oocyte activation induced by ethanol or Sr2+ but not by sperm in mice by Tadashi YAMAZAKI, Md Wasim BARI, Satoshi KISHIGAMI

“…In in vitro fertilization, although the fertilization rate was decreased in the CQ-treated group, in which CQ treatment was continuously applied during insemination, pronuclear formation and cortical granule release were observed. The decrease in the fertilization rate was likely attributable to reduced sperm motility and decreased penetration of the zona pellucida. …”

Role of PPARs in Trypanosoma cruzi Infection: Implications for Chagas Disease Therapy by Eugenia Hovsepian, Federico Penas, Gerardo A. Mirkin, Nora B. Goren

“…Chagas disease, which is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), remains a substantial public health concern and an important cause of morbidity and mortality in Latin America. T. cruzi infection causes an intense inflammatory response in diverse tissues by triggering local expression of inflammatory mediators, which results in the upregulation of the levels of cytokines and chemokines, and important cardiac alterations in the host, being one of the most characteristic damages of Chagas disease. …”
