Copper, the highly toxic micronutrient, plays two essential roles: it is a catalytic and structural cofactor for Cu-dependent enzymes, and it acts as a secondary messenger.In the cells, copper is imported by CTR1 (high-affinity copper transporter 1), a transmembrane high-affinity copper importer, and DMT1 (divalent metal transporter).In cytosol, en
INTRODUCTION: Entomological surveillance of Chagas disease in the Federal District of Brazil (DF), has recorded the following triatomine species: Panstrongylus megistus, P.geniculatus, P.diasi, Rhodnius neglectus, Triatoma pseudomaculata, and T.sordida.We aimed to analyze the spatial and temporal occurrence of triatomine species collected in DF, an
