Background: Trypanosoma cruzi is subjected to hyperosmotic stress during its life cycle. Results: The recovery from hyperosmotic stress involves the function of an aquaporin, amino acid accumulation, polyphosphate synthesis, and global gene regulation. Conclusion:The response to hyperosmotic stress is different from that observed in mammalian cells or yeasts. Significance: Learning the mechanism of osmoregulation is important for finding new drug targets.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
