Leishmaniasis in Brazil: XV. Biochemical distinction of Leishmania mexicana amazonensis, L. braziliensis braziliensis and L. braziliensis guyanensis—aetiological agents of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Amazon Basin of Brazil

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1981
Enzymic profiles of the three known agents of human cutaneous leishmaniasis in the lower Amazon region are compared. Of 14 enzymes, 10 (ASAT, ALAT, GPI, G5PD, MDH, ACON, PEP, HK, MPI and ACP) differentiate Leishmania mexicana amazonensis from L. braziliensis braziliensis or L.

Susceptibility of Aotus Trivirgatus to Leishmania Braziliensis and L. Mexicana

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1981
Two Aotus trivirgatus (owl monkeys) were infected experimentally with Leishmania braziliensis and two with L. mexicana strains of Panamanian origin in a pilot study to determine the susceptibility and the course of infection of cutaneous leishmaniasis in this primate species.

Leishmania donovani and L. braziliensis: Function of pyruvate kinase

Experimental Parasitology, 1977
Abstract Regulatory properties of pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) from Leishmania donovani and Leishmania braziliensis were determined in relation to the enzyme's regulation of glycolysis. L. donovani enzyme responded to its substrate, phosphoenolpyruvate, in a sigmoidal manner while L. braziliensis responded hyperbolically.

The immunobiology of Leishmania braziliensis infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Leishmaniases are a group of diseases caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania that affect millions of people worldwide. These diseases are caused by distinct Leishmania species, of which L.

Amino-acid and glucose utilization of Leishmania donovani and L. braziliensis

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1977
The availability of a defined medium (STEIGER & STEIGER, 1976) has enabled studies on the nutritional requirements of promastigotes of L. donovani and L. braziliensis (STEIGER & STEIGER, 1977). As outlined elsewhere (STEIGER & MESHNICK, 1977), the present paper describes preliminary experiments dealing with the utilization of amino-acids and glucose by

Experimental superimposed infection of the hamster with "Leishmania mexicana" and "L. braziliensis"

Acta tropica, 1982
Hamsters inoculated subcutaneously with Leishmania mexicana (L. m. amazonensis or L. m. mexicana) and with L. braziliensis panamensis, either simultaneously or with an interval, in different parts of the body (right front paw and nose), showed an independent course of infection for either parasite with the typical clinical and histopathological ...
