Cell migration induced by Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, Leishmania (Leishmania) major and Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis into the peritoneal cavity of BALB/c mice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010
In American cutaneous leishmaniasis, the initial infection phase is characterized by recruitment of neutrophils and monocytes. The migration of these cells in response to the presence of Leishmania in the peritoneum of affected animals remains unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate cell migration to the peritoneum of BALB/c mice after ...

Sequential blood meals augment vector infectiousness by promoting Leishmania replication and triggering amplification of metacyclics via a novel retroleptomonad developmental stage

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2018
Sand flies, similar to most vectors, take multiple blood meals during their lifetime1–4. The effect of subsequent blood meals on pathogens developing in the vector and their impact on disease transmission have never been examined.

Real-time imaging of Leishmania mexicana-infected early phagosomes: a study using primary macrophages generated from green fluorescent protein-Rab5 transgenic mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The small GTPase Rab5 is a key regulator of endosome/phagosome maturation and in intravesicular infections marks a phagosome stage at which decisions over pathogen replication or destruction are integrated.

Leishmania naiffi and Leishmania guyanensis reference genomes highlight genome structure and gene evolution in the Viannia subgenus [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
The unicellular protozoan parasite Leishmania causes the neglected tropical disease leishmaniasis, affecting 12 million people in 98 countries. In South America, where the Viannia subgenus predominates, so far only L. (Viannia) braziliensis and L.

Visualization of Leishmania tropica Infection in BALB/c Mice by Bioluminescence Imaging

open access: yesIranian Biomedical Journal, 2020
Background: Leishmania tropica is the cause of more than one form of leishmaniasis and lacks a known reservoir animal. This study compares the potential infectivity of recombinant and wild-type L. tropica in BALB/c mice.

Current Status of Regulatory Non-Coding RNAs Research in the Tritryp

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA, 2022
Trypanosomatids are protozoan parasites that cause devastating vector-borne human diseases. Gene expression regulation of these organisms depends on post-transcriptional control in responding to diverse environments while going through multiple ...

Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonenisInfection, Suriname

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
To the Editor: A 17-year-old man was seen at the Dermatology Service in Paramaribo (Suriname) with a skin condition that he had had since he was 5 years of age. The condition consisted of multiple cutaneous ulcerations, nodules, and fibrotic plaques disseminated on his face, limbs, and trunk, and subcutaneous nodules on lymph-draining tracts on his ...
