IL‐33/ST2 Signaling Sustains Hepato‐Intestinal Homeostasis by Orchestrating Vascular Surveillance and Immune Regulatory Circuits During Experimental Trypanosoma cruzi Infection

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 13, 15 July 2026.
Impairment of hepato‐intestinal homeostasis triggered by ST2 deficiency during T. cruzi infection. Within the splenic compartment, immune dysregulation is marked by a robust pro‐inflammatory polarization of the T‐cell landscape. In the liver, ST2 deficiency is associated with hepatocellular injury, increased parasite burden, and hyperalbuminemia ...

Can cutaneous leishmaniasis provoke a resurgence of kala-azar in the Indian subcontinent?

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases
Background The ongoing kala-azar elimination program in Nepal is based on the assumption of anthroponotic transmission of the protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani. This parasite species was recently also found in lesions of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL)

Glycobiology of Leishmania donovani.

open access: yesThe Indian journal of medical research, 2006
Leishmania donovani, the causative organism of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is one of the deadliest of the entire known Leishmania species. This protozoan parasite displays immense adaptability to survive under extremely harsh conditions. Cell surface glycoconjugates play a pivotal role in parasite virulence and infectivity.

Spermine-NBD as Fluorescent Probe for Studies of Polyamine Transport System in Leishmania Donovani [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study describes the synthesis of fluorescent probes as potential substrates for the polyamine transport system (PTS) of Leishmania donovani. A competitive radioassay was used to determine the most efficient probe.

Emerging Leishmania donovani Lineages Associated with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis, Himachal Pradesh, India, 2023

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases
The clinical manifestation of leishmaniasis has historically been determined by the Leishmania species involved. However, recent emergence of novel Leishmania lineages has caused atypical pathologies.

Leishmania donovani donovani and Leishmania donovani chagasi as antigens in a direct agglutination assay for the diagnosis of kala-azar.

open access: yesBrazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologica, 1990
The need for a reliable method for the immunological diagnosis of kala-azar is imperative. Leishmania donovani donovani and L. donovani chagasi culture promastigotes were compared as antigens in a direct agglutination test (DAT) for the diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis in Brazil.

"Leishmania infantum" : molecular analysis for identification of potential virulence factors and genes of diagnostic use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Leishmania infantum is the causative agents of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis, a fatal disease if left untreated. In Southern Europe, the number of HIV/Leishmania infantum co-infections is increasing and becomes an emerging concern for the public health.

Comparative study of the biological behaviour in hamster of two isolates of leishmania characterized respectively as L. major-like and L. donovani

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1988
Hamster inoculated intraperitoneally with 1 x 10(7) parasites of L. donovani and L. major-like of the New World were studied in groups of 15, 30, 60 and 90 days of infection. The parasite load and density showed progressive increase with the evolution of
