Predicting the distribution of canine leishmaniasis in western Europe based on environmental variables. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The domestic dog is the reservoir host of Leishmania infantum, the causative agent of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis endemic in Mediterranean Europe. Targeted control requires predictive risk maps of canine leishmaniasis (CanL), which are now explored ...

Canine leishmaniosis in South America [PDF]

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2009
Canine leishmaniosis is widespread in South America, where a number of Leishmania species have been isolated or molecularly characterised from dogs. Most cases of canine leishmaniosis are caused by Leishmania infantum (syn. Leishmania chagasi) and Leishmania braziliensis. The only well-established vector of Leishmania parasites to dogs in South America

Canine leishmaniosis and peripheral neuropathy: a lesson from the neurologist. [PDF]

open access: yesParasit Vectors
Abstract Background Canine leishmaniosis (CanL), a sand fly-borne zoonotic disease caused by Leishmania infantum, is potentially lethal in dogs. A similar or slightly higher quantity of antigens over antibodies promotes the formation of soluble circulating immune complexes (sCIC), which are deposited in the capillary ...

Canine leishmaniosis - own observations

open access: yes, 2021
Canine leishmaniosis is among the most important diseases with zoonotic potential, because dogs are considered the 'main reservoir of the parasite. In endemic areas, clinical form of the disease is observed only in about 10% of infected dogs. If present,

Borrelia, Leishmania, and Babesia: An Emerging Triad of Vector-Borne Co-Infections?

open access: yesPathogens
Canine leishmaniosis (CanL), caused by the protozoan Leishmania infantum and transmitted primarily by phlebotomine sand flies, poses significant challenges for zoonotic disease management [...]

Structural basis of ligand selectivity in FAD/NAD(P)H‐dependent dehydrogenases: insights from trypanothione reductase and type II NADH dehydrogenase

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract FAD/NAD(P)H‐dependent dehydrogenases form a structurally conserved family of redox enzymes that participate in essential metabolic processes across parasites and higher organisms. Among them, trypanothione reductase (TR) is a key component of the redox metabolism of Leishmania species and represents an attractive target for antileishmanial ...

Leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum in a FIV and FeIV positive cat with a squamous cell carcinoma diagnosed with histological, serological and isoenzymatic methods

open access: yesParasite, 2005
Leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum is an endemic zoonosis present in the Mediterranean area. Canidae (dog and fox) constitute the main reservoir hosts for the parasite, whilst wild rodents or the cat can be carriers of the protozoan and are ...

Evaluation of the Cutaneous Immunological Milieu Before and After Treatment With Meglumine Antimoniate in Dogs Naturally Affected by Leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 455-463, June 2026.
Background: Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a zoonotic disease of variable severity. The typical immune response is driven by an exaggerated humoral immune response. Protective immunity is mediated by pro‐inflammatory cytokines that enhance macrophage leishmanicidal activity. Objective: To evaluate the cutaneous and the systemic immune responses as well
