Leishmania major chromosome 3 contains two long convergent polycistronic gene clusters separated by a tRNA gene [PDF]
, 2003 Leishmania parasites (order Kinetoplastida, family Trypanosomatidae) cause a spectrum of human diseases ranging from asymptomatic to lethal. The approximately 33.6 Mb genome is distributed among 36 chromosome pairs that range in size from approximately 0.

Parasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 8, August 2025.ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis is a potentially fatal zoonosis with an increasing incidence. Most infected felines present the disease in its subclinical form and demonstrate greater resistance to parasitemia than dogs. However, the role of cellular immunity in felines is still poorly understood. This study measured serum levels of interleukin (IL)‐12

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2007 Renal involvement in visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is very frequent but the pathogenesis of this nephropathy is poorly understood. In previous studies using dogs with VL we have detected new immunopathological elements in the glomeruli such as T cells and ...

The role of leishmania proteophosphoglycans in sand fly transmission and infection of the Mammalian host. [PDF]
, 2012 Leishmania are transmitted by the bite of their sand fly vector and this has a significant influence on the virulence of the resulting infection. From our studies into the interaction between parasite, vector, and host we have uncovered an important ...

Presence of antibodies against Leishmania chagasi in haemodialysed patients
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2009 In the last decades there has been an increase in cases of visceral leishmaniasis complicating the post-transplant phase, mainly following kidney transplantation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reactivity of haemodialysed patients using IFAT. Blood samples of 310 individuals from Natal, RN, Brazil, were collected and analysed. Data regarding

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2011 INTRODUCTION: Domestic dogs are the most important reservoir in the peridomestic transmission cycle of Leishmania (Leishmania) chagasi. The genetic variability of subpopulations of this parasite circulating in dogs has not been thoroughly analyzed in ...
