Coumarin‐Benzimidazole Hybrids as Multitarget Scaffolds for Antileishmanial Drug Discovery

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 38, 13 October 2026.
Coumarin‐benzimidazole hybrids emerge as promising antileishmanial agents through virtual screening against essential Leishmania enzymes, Cathepsin B (CatB), and N‐myristoyltransferase (NMT). Molecular docking and dynamics simulations reveal highly stable target interactions that surpass the reference drug miltefosine (MTF).

An Autochthonous Case of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis in Korea

The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2013
A 12-year-old spayed female mixed-bred dog presented with nasal bleeding of 2 days duration and a skin nodule in the left flank. No abnormalities were found in coagulation profiles and blood pressure. Cytological evaluation of the nodule revealed numerous characteristic round organisms having a nucleus and a bar within macrophages and in the background,

Slc11a1 (formerly Nramp1) and susceptibility to canine visceral leishmaniasis [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2008
Visceral leishmaniasis is the most important zoonosis in Europe and it is caused by Leishmania infantum, a protozoan intracellular parasite. Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is endemic in the Mediterranean basin, Middle East, and South America, and is emerging within non endemic areas such as the United Kingdom and North America. We have analyzed 24

Domestic animals and epidemiology of visceral leishmaniasis, Nepal. [PDF]

, 2010
On the Indian subcontinent, visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is considered an anthroponosis. To determine possible reasons for its persistence during interepidemic periods, we mapped Leishmania infections among healthy persons and animals in an area of active

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK

Veterinary Record, Volume 199, Issue 5, Page e238-e249, 5/12 September 2026.
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted

Canine visceral leishmaniasis as a systemic fibrotic disease

International Journal of Experimental Pathology, 2013
SummaryWe propose that canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is a systemic fibrotic disease, as evidenced by the wide distribution of fibrosis that we have found in the dogs suffering from chronic condition. The inflammatory cells apparently direct fibrosis formation.
