Relapsing Nasal Septal Leishmaniasis: Lessons in Long‐Term Multidisciplinary Management Case Report
Introduction Mucosal leishmaniasis (ML) is a rare, destructive, and recurrent protozoal infection caused by Leishmania species, most commonly Leishmania braziliensis. ML can develop months to years after initial cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) and may lead to severe mucosal destruction if untreated.

Unveiling the Silent Regulators: Noncoding RNAs in Parasitic Disease Diagnosis and Therapy
Parasitic diseases remain a major global health burden, particularly in tropical and low‐resource regions, where limitations in early diagnosis and effective therapeutics contribute to high morbidity and mortality. Emerging evidence highlights noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) as critical regulators of host–parasite interactions, offering novel opportunities for

Structural and functional studies of Leishmania braziliensis Hsp90
The ubiquitous Hsp90 is critical for protein homeostasis in the cells, stabilizing "client" proteins in a functional state. Hsp90 activity depends on its ability to bind and hydrolyze ATP, involving various conformational changes that are regulated by co-chaperones, posttranslational modifications and small molecules.

Biphenylquinuclidines as inhibitors of squalene synthase and growth of parasitic protozoa.
In this paper we describe the preparation of some biphenylquinuclidine derivatives and their evaluation as inhibitors of squalene synthase in order to explore their potential in the treatment of the parasitic diseases leishmaniasis and Chagas disease ...

Heterogeneity of cysteine proteinases in Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania major.
Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) with acrylamide copolymerized with gelatin (substrate-SDS-PAGE) was used to compare promastigote proteinases from two Leishmania species (L. braziliensis and L. major-like). Substrate-SDS-PAGE resolved at least 6 distinct proteinase activities with relative molecular masses between 20
