Monodentate Phosphine Modulation in Cyclometallated Platinum(II) Complexes for Antileishmanial, Antiviral, and Antitumor Applications

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 4, 25 February 2026.
Schematic representation depicting the influence of phosphine ligand identity on the biological and physicochemical characteristics of Pt(II) complexes: PTA promotes antileishmanial activity, PPh2(Php–COOH) strengthens antiviral activity, and TCEP enhances fluorescence.

An outbreak of human Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis infection [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991
The occurrence of acute cutaneous leishmaniasis among inhabitants of 10 farms within 10 Km of the hamlet of Corte de Pedra, Bahia, Brazil was studied prospectively from 1984-1989. A mean population of 1,056 inhabitants living in 146 houses were visited every 6 months and the number of skin ulcers recorded.

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

open access: yesMemorias 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.

Oral Treatment With Heat Shock Protein 65‐Producing Lactococcus lactis Induces Regulatory T Cells, Modulating Inflammatory Response in Leishmania braziliensis Infection

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 177, Issue 1, Page 59-69, January 2026.
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 ...

Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies consistently show that many parasitic diseases affect males more frequently than females. These disparities are multifactorial, arising partly from gender‐specific behaviors that influence exposure risk and health‐seeking practices, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Increasing evidence also highlights that

Mechanisms of Immune Evasion, Dissemination, and Persistence in Leishmania amazonensis Infection

open access: yesParasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Leishmania amazonensis is one of the etiological agents of cutaneous leishmaniasis in its localised form. Moreover, this parasite can cause more severe disease conditions, such as diffuse and disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis. The development of more severe clinical manifestations is associated with the parasite's ability to establish a ...
