Antileishmanial Activity of Azitahromycin Against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis, and Leishmania (Leishmania) chagasi

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2008
Azithromycin, an azalide antibiotic, is highly concentrated within different phagocytic cells, especially macrophages. The potential antileishmanial activity of azithromycin against three species of Leishmania from the New World was assessed using in vitro models.

Detection of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis and Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi in Brazilian bats

Veterinary Parasitology, 2010
Although bats are one of the most abundant mammals in the new world and are present in virtually all ecosystems, including urban and peri-urban environments, few studies have investigated the role of these animals in the epidemiological chain of leishmaniosis.

Leishmania (Viannia) panamensis/Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis—A Warning

Parasitology Today, 1999
The parasite Leishmania (Viannia) panamensis causes local cutaneous lesions. The Laboratory of Infectious Disease Pathology of the University of Sao Paulo Medical School has been working with a strain of Leishmania (Viannia) panamensis, HSJD-1, characterized by isoenzyme at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, by W.

The chromosomes of Leishmania

Parasitology Today, 1992
Chromosome size polymorphisms occur in Leishmania such that each strain of a given species has a distinctive molecular karyotype. Despite this variability, the chromosomal similarities among closely related strains of Leishmania are sufficiently characteristic to permit classification of unidentified clinical isolates.

The Lipophosphoglycan of Leishmania

Parasitology Today, 1988
The major cell surface glycoconjugate of leishmanial parasites is lipophosphoglycan (LPG). Its relative abundance, unique structure, and cellular location suggest one or more important roles in interactions between parasites and host cells. In this article, Sam Turco examines current information about this novel glycoconjugate and its significance.

In vitro activity of cinnamaldehyde on Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis

Experimental Parasitology, 2022
Tegumentary leishmaniasis is an endemic disease that urgently needs new and effective treatments. L. amazonensis is one of the main species involved in the transmission of this infectious and non-contagious disease. The currently available treatments for leishmaniasis have high toxicity and vary in efficacy.
