ABSTRACT Background and Aim Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) is a metabolic disorder affecting branched‐chain amino acid metabolism. While neurological symptoms are well‐characterized, cutaneous manifestations such as acrodermatitis dysmetabolica (AD) caused by isoleucine deficiency remain underrecognized.

Natural killer cells in experimental and human leishmaniasis
Infections with parasites of the genus Leishmania lead to a rapid, but transient activation of natural killer (NK) cells. In mice activation of NK cells requires a toll-like-receptor 9-dependent stimulation of dendritic cells followed by the production ...

Synthesis and biological evaluation (antibacterial, antifungal, anti‐tuberculosis, antiprotozoal) and in silico molecular docking of biphenyl ether based Schiff's base analogues. ABSTRACT In order to investigate their possible biological activity, a number of new Schiff base compounds based on diaryl ether, specifically 2‐(substituted‐arylamino)‐N′‐(3 ...

Efficacy of Thermotherapy to Treat Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Caused by Leishmania tropica in Kabul, Afghanistan: A Randomized, Controlled Trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pentavalent antimony is the agent recommended for treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL). Its use is problematic, because it is expensive and because of the potential for drug-associated adverse effects during a lengthy and painful ...

Coumarin‐Benzimidazole Hybrids as Multitarget Scaffolds for Antileishmanial Drug Discovery
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).

Epidemiology and control of canine leishmaniasis in Peru and Brazil [PDF]
The aims of the work presented in this thesis were two-fold: [i) to investigate whether domestic dogs are important reservoir hosts of ACL in a L. [Viannia]-endemic area where domestic transmission to humans has been reported [Part 1]; and [ii] to ...
