Anti-leishmanial Activity of Justicidone and its Synthetic Precursors
Justicidone, a C-5, C-8 dioxo-lignan of the arylnaphthalene type isolated from Justicia hyssopifolia, and its synthetic precursors were tested for the activity against Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania amazonensis promastigotes in vitro. Justicidone

From population to genome: ecogenetics of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and L. (V.) peruviana
The size polymorphism of nine chromosomes, recognized by specific probes, was analysed in populations of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and L. (V.) peruviana from various Peruvian biogeographical units. Interpretation of the polymorphism, by statistical and phenetic methods, led to the identification of five consensus (alpha- and beta-tubulin) and ...

Analysis of the specificity of human antibodies to antigens of Leishmania braziliensis braziliensis [PDF]
The antigenicity of promastigotes of Leishmania braziliensis braziliensis (L. b.braziliensis) treated with 1% sodium desoxycholate in 10 mM Tris-Hcl pH 8.2 was analysed by immunoblot using as probes sera from American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL ...

Exploring 6‐Hydroxy‐3‐Aryl/Heteroarylcoumarins as Promising Candidates Against Trypanosoma cruzi
New therapies are urgently needed for Chagas disease, and screening of 6‐hydroxy‐3‐aryl/heteroarylcoumarin derivatives identified highly selective compounds with potent activity against T. cruzi. In particular, derivative 1f showed submicromolar trypomastigote potency, dual‐stage activity, and inhibition of amastigote‐to‐trypomastigote differentiation,

Both Leishmania major and L. braziliensis induce cutaneous leishmaniasis in BALB/c mice. Whereas BALB/c mice die of infection with L. major, they cure an infection with L. braziliensis. We report here that after curing an infection with L.
