Integrated analysis of lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in cutaneous leishmaniasis lesions caused by Leishmania tropica

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundCutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), caused by Leishmania (L.) species, remains a neglected tropical disease in many developing countries. We and others have shown that different Leishmania species can alter the gene expression profile of human host ...

Export of miRNAs from activated macrophages is cooperative and HuR‐dependent

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 5, Page 693-709, March 2026.
This study uncovers a new mechanism for miRNA export regulation in mammalian cells, driven by the RNA‐binding protein HuR. In macrophages, HuR cooperatively binds with miRNAs to export both low‐ and high‐affinity substrates, thereby influencing macrophage activation.

Phytochemical and Biological Evaluation of Leaves, Stems, and Roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. Ex Engl.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
Ethanolic extracts from leaves, stems, and roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. ex Engl. were evaluated for phytochemical composition and biological activities. The extracts exhibited antioxidant, photoprotective, and antimicrobial activity, without hemolytic effects or cytotoxicity at active concentrations. Syringic acid, epicatechin, and rutin were

Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in High‐Altitude: A Case Report From Nepal

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Leishmaniasis is a parasitic infection caused by Leishmania and spread by the bite of a sandfly, most commonly Phlebotomus. Among the three subtypes of Leishmaniasis, cutaneous leishmaniasis is the most common form. Visceral Leishmaniasis is common in Nepal whereas few cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis have been reported in migrant Nepalese ...
