Pentoxifylline Reverses Chronic Experimental Chagasic Cardiomyopathy in Association with Repositioning of Abnormal CD8(+) T-Cell Response

BACKGROUND: Chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCC), the main clinical sign of Chagas disease, is associated with systemic CD8(+) T-cell abnormalities and CD8-enriched myocarditis occurring in an inflammatory milieu.
