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

“…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. Therefore, controlling the inflammatory reaction becomes critical for the control of the proliferation of the parasite and of the evolution of Chagas disease. …”

Density Functional Theory Study on Conformers of Benzoylcholine Chloride by Mustafa Karakaya, Fatih Ucun, Ahmet Tokatlı

“…The optimized molecular structures and vibrational frequencies and also gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) 1H and 13C NMR shift values of benzoylcholine chloride [(2-benzoyloxyethyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride] have been calculated using density functional theory (B3LYP) method with 6-31++G(d) basis set. The comparison of the experimental and calculated infrared (IR), Raman, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra has indicated that the experimental spectra are formed from the superposition of the spectra of two lowest energy conformers of the compound. …”
