Toll-Like Receptor 2 Is Required for Inflammatory Process Development during Leishmania infantum Infection

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a chronic and fatal disease caused by Leishmania infantum in Brazil. Leukocyte recruitment to infected tissue is a crucial event for the control of infections such as VL.

The prominent role of neutrophils during the initial phase of infection by Leishmania parasites. [PDF]

, 2010
Neutrophils are rapidly and massively recruited to the site of Leishmania inoculation, where they phagocytose the parasites, some of which are able to survive within these first host cells.

Immunity Switches and Macrophage Manipulations: Trauma, Ovulation, and Depression as Latent Tuberculosis Reactivation Risks

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 37, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Inflammation is the immune system's natural response to initial tuberculosis infection. Tuberculosis bacteria have gained adaptations to manipulate the inflammatory process, sometimes settling into latency and containment in granulomas, ensuring their survival.

Immunization of Experimental Dogs With Salivary Proteins From Lutzomyia longipalpis, Using DNA and Recombinant Canarypox Virus Induces Immune Responses Consistent With Protection Against Leishmania infantum

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Metacyclic Leishmania promastigotes are transmitted by sand flies that inject parasites and saliva into the host's skin. Previous studies have demonstrated that DNA plasmids encoding Lutzomyia longipalpis salivary proteins LJM17 and LJL143, when used to ...

Neutrophils enhance early Trypanosoma brucei infection onset. [PDF]

, 2018
In this study, Trypanosoma brucei was naturally transmitted to mice through the bites of infected Glossina morsitans tsetse flies. Neutrophils were recruited rapidly to the bite site, whereas monocytes were attracted more gradually.

Different Derivatives of Plumbagin Analogue: Bioavailability and Their Toxicity Studies

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
Plumbagin, discovered in Plumbago zeylanica, has potential therapeutic effects such as anticancer, antimicrobial, and anti‐inflammatory characteristics. It has traditionally been used to treat anemia and rheumatic pain, but its therapeutic application is limited because of low bioavailability and toxicity risk factors.
