Novel sources of Flavor Changed Neutral Currents in the model
Sources of Flavor Changed Neutral Currents (FCNC) naturally emerge from a
well motivated framework called 3-3-1 with right-handed neutrinos model,
for short, mediated by an extra neutral gauge boson .
Following previous works we calculate these sources and in addition we derive
new ones coming from CP-even and -odd neutral scalars which appear due to their
non-diagonal interactions with the physical standard quarks. Furthermore we
show that bounds related to the neutral mesons systems and may be significantly strengthened in the presence of these new
interactions allowing us to infer stronger constraints on the parameter space
of the model.Comment: Published version. 10 pages, 6 figure
Testing the Efficacy of a Multi-Component DNA-Prime/DNA-Boost Vaccine against Trypanosoma cruzi Infection in Dogs
Immunization of dogs with DNA-prime/DNA-boost vaccine (TcVac1) enhanced the
Trypanosoma cruzi-specific type 1 antibody and
CD8+ T cell responses that resulted in an early control of
acute parasitemia and a moderate decline in pathological symptoms during chronic
phase. Further improvement of vaccine-induced immunity would be required to
achieve clinical and epidemiological benefits and prevent transmission of
parasites from vaccinated/infected dogs to triatomines
