Metabolomics to unveil and understand phenotypic diversity between pathogen populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Visceral leishmaniasis is caused by a parasite called Leishmania donovani, which every year infects about half a million people and claims several thousand lives. Existing treatments are now becoming less effective due to the emergence of drug resistance.

Over-expression of 60s ribosomal L23a is associated with cellular proliferation in SAG resistant clinical isolates of Leishmania donovani.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
BackgroundSodium antimony gluconate (SAG) unresponsiveness of Leishmania donovani (Ld) had effectively compromised the chemotherapeutic potential of SAG.

Structures, targets and recent approaches in anti-leishmanial drug discovery and development. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recent years have seen a significant improvement in available treatment options for leishmaniasis. Two new drugs, miltefosine and paromomycin, have been registered for the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in India since 2002.

In Vitro Low Responsiveness of Leishmania donovani Towards Sodium Antimony Gluconate

open access: yesBangladesh Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2016
Kala-azar has been uprising concomitantly with drug-resistant strains of the causatinve agent, particularly in the neighbouring India. The actual perspective of drug resistance in Leishmania donovani in Bangladesh is yet to be explored. So, this prospective study, as a preliminary one, was done to observe in vitro drug responsiveness against Sodium ...

Bioengineered 3D hPSC‐Cholangiocyte Ducts With Physiological Signals for Biliary Disease Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 20, 27 May 2026.
Tian and colleagues generated a bioengineered bile duct from human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)‐derived intrahepatic cholangiocytes within a high‐throughput, 384‐well platform to systematically examine the influence of biliary physiological signals including fluid flow, stromal cells and bile acids, and models intrahepatic biliary disease progression ...

Arginase activity - a marker of disease status in patients with visceral leishmaniasis in ethiopia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The underlying mechanisms resulting in the profound immune suppression characteristic of human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) are not fully understood. Here, we tested the hypothesis that arginase, an enzyme associated with immunosuppression, is higher in ...

Expandable Nanocomposite Shape‐Memory Hemostat for the Treatment of Noncompressible Hemorrhage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
A nanocomposite‐coated shape memory foam rapidly expands, accelerates clotting, and reduces blood loss in vivo. Its fast volumetric expansion and strong procoagulant activity make it a promising hemostat for treating deep, noncompressible hemorrhage.

Assessing aquaglyceroporin gene status and expression profile in antimony-susceptible and -resistant clinical isolates of Leishmania donovani from India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Objectives: Clinical resistance to pentavalent antimonials results from an interplay between uptake, efflux and sequestration in Leishmania. Aquaglyceroporins (AQPs) have been shown to facilitate uptake of trivalent metalloids. Down-regulation of AQP1 in

Respiratory‐Limbic Coupling via a Thalamic Circuit Alleviates Anxiety

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 24, 27 April 2026.
This study delineates a conserved preBötCGlu→PVT→CeA circuit that gates anxiety and respiration. Activation of this circuit is anxiolytic and respiratory‐stabilizing, while its inhibition has the opposite effect. Mechanistically, PVT exerts its anxiolytic action via a disinhibitory microcircuit: its inputs preferentially target CeL GABAergic neurons ...

Sub-Optimal dose of Sodium Antimony Gluconate (SAG)-Diperoxovanadate Combination Clears Organ Parasites from BALB/c Mice Infected with Antimony Resistant Leishmania Donovani by Expanding Antileishmanial T-Cell Repertoire and Increasing IFN-c to IL-10 Ratio

open access: yes, 2009
We demonstrate that the combination of sub-optimal doses of Sodium Antimony Gluconate (SAG) and the diperoxovanadate compound K[VO(O2)2(H2O)], also designated as PV6, is highly effective in combating experimental infection of BALB/c mice with antimony ...
