The role of leishmania proteophosphoglycans in sand fly transmission and infection of the Mammalian host. [PDF]
Leishmania are transmitted by the bite of their sand fly vector and this has a significant influence on the virulence of the resulting infection. From our studies into the interaction between parasite, vector, and host we have uncovered an important ...

Leishmania DNA was confirmed in phlebotomine sand flies collected in Slovenia. Molecular analyses confirmed Leishmania infantum in a pool of Phlebotomus neglectus females with a high parasite DNA load. The findings indicate potential conditions for local transmission and support continued entomological surveillance.

Genome-wide quantification of polycistronic transcription in Leishmania major
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.

ABSTRACT Introduction Cryptosporidium is responsible not only for large economic losses in the livestock sector, but also for high mortality in infants and immunocompromised people all over the world. Although multiple treatments have been tested in both animals and humans, no drug has yet been found to be 100% effective.

Complete developmental cycle of Leishmania mexicana in axenic culture [PDF]
A complete developmental sequence of Leishmania mexicana has been produced in axenic culture for the first time. This was achieved by manipulation of media, pH and temperature conditions over a period of 16 days.

Expression of Human CYP2D6 in Artificial Cells Based on Polymer‐Lipid Hybrid Vesicles
Expression of eGFP and human cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) within the lumen of giant polymer‐lipid hybrid vesicles using a Leishmania tarentolae‐based cell‐free protein expression system is illustrated. Both proteins were expressed in the vesicle lumen, and low‐polymer‐content hybrid vesicles were the most suitable scaffolds for CYP2D6 expression with ...

Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis and Leishmania infantum (=Leishmania chagasi) are protozoa that cause American cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis, respectively. These diseases show a high incidence in developing countries such as Brazil. The treatments used for leishmaniasis are still limited due to their high cost and toxicity.

This article contains the data regarding Leishmania species identification in human and canine clinical samples from a Brazilian region endemic for Leishmania (Viannia) spp., Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum and Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, using a previously developed approach involving two qPCR assays (qPCR-ML and qPCR-ama).
