Early suppression of lymphoproliferative response in dogs with natural infection by Leishmania infantum. [PDF]
, 1999 Dogs are the domestic reservoirs of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania infantum. Early detection of canine infections evolving to clinically patent disease may be important to leishmaniasis control.
