Comparison of gene expression patterns among Leishmania braziliensis clinical isolates showing a different in vitro susceptibility to pentavalent antimony [PDF]
Introduction. Evaluation of Leishmania drug susceptibility depends on in vitro SbV susceptibility assays, which are labour-intensive and may give a biased view of the true parasite resistance. Molecular markers are urgently needed to improve and simplify

Here, we document how the implementation of a portable laboratory, in combination with targeted long‐read sequencing through an approach known as nanopore adaptive sampling, can facilitate in situ genomic and systematic analyses across a wide range of animal taxa, including multiple small mammals and blood‐feeding arthropods.

Survival Mechanisms Used by Some Leishmania Species to Escape Neutrophil Killing [PDF]
Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes in human blood. Upon microbial infection, they are massively and rapidly recruited from the circulation to sites of infection where they efficiently kill pathogens.

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

ABSTRACT Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) remains a therapeutic challenge in endemic regions, with 600,000–1 million new cases annually facing limited treatment options. We present a case series evaluating an innovative topical combination therapy for acute‐phase CL in Shiraz, Iran.

CXCR1 and SLC11A1polymorphisms affect susceptibility to cutaneous leishmaniasis in Brazil: a case-control and family-based study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: L. braziliensis causes cutaneous (CL) and mucosal (ML) leishmaniasis. Wound healing neutrophil (PMN) and macrophage responses made following the bite of the vector sand fly contribute to disease progression in mice.

ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...
