PUF Proteins as Critical RNA-Binding Proteins in TriTryp Parasites: A Review Article

Iranian Journal of Parasitology
In eukaryotes, translation is a fundamental step in the long pathway of protein synthesis within the cell. In this process, several proteins and factors have involved directly or indirectly, individually or in association with other elements to contact ...

The Role of Nitric Oxide and Reactive Oxygen Species in the Killing of Leishmania braziliensis by Monocytes from Patients with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis

PLoS ONE, 2016
Human cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) caused by Leishmania braziliensis, presents an exaggerated Th1 response that is associated with ulcer development. Macrophages are the primary cells infected by Leishmania parasites and both reactive oxygen species (ROS)

Mining Alzheimer's Interactomes, Macromolecular Complexes and Pathways for Drug Discovery

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to dementia. Many cases are diagnosed annually and there is no currently available cure. Understanding the underlying disease biology of AD through the study of molecular networks, particularly by mapping clinical variants to tissue‐specific interactomes and ...

Leishmaniasis: new approaches to disease control. [PDF]

, 2003
The leishmaniases afflict the world's poorest populations. Among the two million new cases each year in the 88 countries where the disease is endemic (fig 1), it is estimated that 80% earn less than $2 a day.

Synthesis and Antileishmanial Activity of 1,2,4,5-Tetraoxanes against Leishmania donovani [PDF]

, 2020
A chemically diverse range of novel tetraoxanes was synthesized and evaluated in vitro against intramacrophage amastigote forms of Leishmania donovani. All 15 tested tetraoxanes displayed activity, with IC50 values ranging from 2 to 45 µm.

Nanoparticle‐Based Tetracycline Delivery Systems: Advancing Therapeutic Effectiveness and Tackling Antibiotic Resistance

Particle &Particle Systems Characterization, EarlyView.
This review explores improved tetracycline (TCN) delivery via polymer‐based nanocarriers to enhance solubility, stability, and targeted release. It also covers stimuli‐responsive systems, triggered by pH, enzymes, or reactive oxygen species (ROS), and co‐delivery approaches that increase therapeutic efficacy in cancer and inflammatory diseases ...

Persistence of Leishmania antigen in C57Bl/6j inbred mice infected with Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis [PDF]

Revista da Associação Médica Brasileira, 1999
To develop an animal model for studying mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.The hind footpad of C57Bl/6j inbred mice was experimentally infected with 10(7) Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis promastigote and the skin was studied through light and electron transmission microscopy and immunohistochemistry (PAP) techniques.There were morphological evidences of ...

Production of Recombinant Leishmania Tropica Parasites Expressing Two Proteins of Egfp and Luciferase Reporter

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2017
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: L. tropica is the major cause of cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis in Iran. Due to lack of an accurate, sensitive and noninvasive detection test in animal model is a major problem. Here, we designed L.

Genome-wide quantification of polycistronic transcription in Leishmania major

mBio
Leishmania major is a human-pathogenic, obligate parasite and the etiological agent of the most prevalent, cutaneous form of leishmaniasis, which is an important neglected, tropical disease with ~1.2 million new infections per year.
