Introduction. Chagas disease is the main cause of cardiomyopathy in endemic regions of Latin America. Alterations in the cardiac mitochondrial energy metabolism caused by Trypanosoma cruzi can be involved in the development of this cardiomyopathy during the course of Chagas disease.Objective. The cellular injury of the rat myocardium was investigated in rats infected with the Colombian Mg8 strain of Trypanosoma cruzi. The activity of mitochondrial ATP synthase was measured to determine the relationship heart damage with the energy metabolism.Materials and methods. Two groups of five rats each were infected with tripomastigotes, with 1 group of 6 rats serving as controls. The course of infection was characterized by parasitological, histopat...
