Decoding the anti-Leishmania braziliensis activity of 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione and its silver- and copper-based complexes: In vitro and in vivo approaches

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medicinal Chemistry Reports, 2022
Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease, whose chemotherapy still presents a series of severe side effects for the patient. Recently, our group published the leishmanicidal action of 1,10-phenanthroline (1), 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (phendione,

Comparing the Antileishmanial Activity of Gold(I) and Gold(III) Compounds in L. amazonensis and L. braziliensis in Vitro [PDF]

open access: yesChemMedChem, 2020
AbstractAbstract: A series of mononuclear coordination or organometallic AuI/AuIII complexes (1–9) have been comparatively studied in vitro for their antileishmanial activity against promastigotes and amastigotes, the clinically relevant parasite form, of Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania braziliensis.

Intraspecies Polymorphisms in the Lipophosphoglycan of L. braziliensis Differentially Modulate Macrophage Activation via TLR4 [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
Lipophosphoglycan (LPG) is the major Leishmania surface glycoconjugate having importance during the host-parasite interface. Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis displays a spectrum of clinical forms including: typical cutaneous leishmaniasis (TL), mucocutaneous (ML), and atypical lesions (AL).

Leishmania infantum induces high phagocytic capacity and intracellular nitric oxide production by human proinflammatory monocyte [PDF]

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz
BACKGROUND The mechanism of resistance to SbIII in Leishmania is complex, multifactorial and involves not only biochemical mechanisms, but also other elements, such as the immune system of the host.

In vitro stimulation of metacyclogenesis in Leishmania braziliensis, L. donovani, L. major and L. mexicana [PDF]

open access: yesParasitology, 1998
Promastigotes of Leishmania braziliensis, L. donovani, L. major and L. mexicana recently derived from tissue amastigotes were cultured in Schneider's Drosophila medium supplemented with 20% (v/v) heat-inactivated foetal calf serum and 25 μg gentamicin sulfate/ml at pH 5·5.

Therapeutic Efficacy of Arnica in Hamsters with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Caused by Leishmania braziliensis and L. tropica

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Leishmaniasis may occur in three different clinical forms, namely, visceral, mucocutaneous and cutaneous, which are caused by different species of trypanosomatid protozoans of the genus Leishmania. Pentavalent antimonials are the leading treatment for cutaneous leishmaniasis despite the hepatic, renal, and cardiac toxicity. In addition, the response of
