Oral Treatment With Heat Shock Protein 65-Producing Lactococcus lactis Induces Regulatory T Cells, Modulating Inflammatory Response in Leishmania braziliensis Infection. [PDF]

Immunology
Oral treatment with HSP65‐producing Lactococcus lactis after Leishmania braziliensis infection modulates inflammation by promoting lesion resolution through increased IL‐10 production and expansion of regulatory T cells. These findings highlight the potential of oral tolerance induction as a promising therapeutic strategy for chronic inflammatory ...

Active sesquiterpene lactones against Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania braziliensis [PDF]

Natural Product Research, 2016
Seventeen sesquiterpene lactones (SLs) isolated from five species of the tribe Vernonieae were evaluated for their in vitro activity against promastigotes of Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania braziliensis. Additionally, a quantitative structure activity relationship has been made, since all these natural compounds were found to have potent to mild ...

Sclerosing Orbital Inflammation Caused by Leishmania braziliensis [PDF]

The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2017
Orbital biopsy of nonspecific orbital inflammation, commonly referred to as “orbital pseudotumor,” typically shows a combination of polyclonal lymphocytes, plasmocytes, leukocytes, macrophages, and variable degrees of collagen deposition. Herein, we report a patient with a positive history of mucocutaneous leishmaniasis who presented with an orbital ...
