Leishmania infantum induces high phagocytic capacity and intracellular nitric oxide production by human proinflammatory monocyte [PDF]

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz
BACKGROUND The mechanism of resistance to SbIII in Leishmania is complex, multifactorial and involves not only biochemical mechanisms, but also other elements, such as the immune system of the host.

Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis growth in vitro culture relies more on folic acid availability than Leihsmania (Leishmania) amazonensis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2005
We compared the in vitro growth of promastigotes from two Leishmania species in TC-100 and Schneider media. Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis replication rates were similar in both tissue culture media and reached maximum rates by 48 h.

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 ...

Systemic treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis assessed systemic treatments for cutaneous leishmaniasis across 83 studies and 4603 patients. Treatment efficacies of meglumine antimoniate, miltefosine, azoles, pentamidine, and liposomal amphotericin B varied by region and species. Miltefosine showed consistent evidence across multiple settings.
