Autochthonous case of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis in a non-endemic area in Minas Gerais, Brazil

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: Visceral Leishmaniasis by Leishmania infantum chagasi is an endemic zoonosis present in many areas of Brazil. This parasite needs reservoirs for maintenance of the infection and the presence of dogs in urban areas is a key factor for the spread of ...

Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

Immunological 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

Molecular approaches for a better understanding of the epidemiology and population genetics of Leishmania. [PDF]

, 2011
Molecular approaches are being used increasingly for epidemiological studies of visceral and cutaneous leishmaniases. Several molecular markers resolving genetic differences between Leishmania parasites at species and strain levels have been developed to

The transmission of Leishmania infantum chagasi by the bite of the Lutzomyia longipalpis to two different vertebrates

Parasites & Vectors, 2012
Background Sandflies are vectors of Leishmania, the causative agent of leishmaniasis in mammalian hosts, including humans. The protozoan parasite is transmitted by the sandfly bite during salivation that occurs at the moment of blood feeding.

Interaction ofLeishmania (L.) chagasiwith the Vero cell line [PDF]

Parasite, 2004
The Vero cell line, a non-phagocytic cell, has supported the intracellular mechanism of Leishmania (L.) chagasi. This strain (MHOM/BR/501/MS00) was isolated from a human case of visceral leishmaniasis in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil and cultivated in Schneider's Drosophila medium with 20% of heat inactivated fetal calf serum. It was allowed to infect the

Ecotin-like serine peptidase inhibitor ISP1 of Leishmania major plays a role in flagellar pocket dynamics and promastigote differentiation [PDF]

, 2012
Leishmania ISPs are ecotin-like natural peptide inhibitors of trypsin-family serine peptidases, enzymes that are absent from the Leishmania genome. This led to the proposal that ISPs inhibit host serine peptidases and we have recently shown that ISP2 ...

Reproduction of Leishmania (Leishmania ) infantum chagasi in conditioned cell culture growth medium [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2006
Leishmanias can be produced by inoculation in conditioned McCoy cell culture growth medium (CGM). Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi (100 parasites) grown in NNN medium was inoculated in 2.5 mL CGM, kept in plates (24 wells) and its multiplication was observed for five days (120 hours).

Microcapsules Containing Lippia origanoides Kunth Essential Oil as a Natural Alternative to Control Food Spoilage Pathogens: A Preliminary Study

Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This research presents a preliminary study on the volatile retention and antimicrobial potential of microencapsulated Lippia origanoides essential oil (LoEO), aiming to analyze the viability of the process in terms of maintaining its main volatile constituents and its effectiveness against food‐contaminating bacteria.

Investigating the role of the Leishmania (Leishmania) major HASP and SHERP genes during metacyclogenesis in the sand fly vectors, Phlebotomus (Phlebotomus) papatasi and Ph. (Ph.) duboscqi [PDF]

, 2013
Leishmania parasites are the causative agents of a diverse spectrum of infectious diseases termed the leishmaniases. These digenetic parasites exist as intracellular, aflagellate amastigotes in a mammalian host and as extracellular flagellated ...
