Global genome diversity of the Leishmania donovani complex [PDF]
eLife, 2020 Protozoan parasites of the Leishmania donovani complex – L. donovani and L. infantum – cause the fatal disease visceral leishmaniasis. We present the first comprehensive genome-wide global study, with 151 cultured field isolates representing most of the ...

LEISHMANIA DONOVANI IN THE PERIPHERAL BLOOD [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1923 1. The effect of human red cells and serum on the growth of Leishmania donovani has been studied and a blood culture method devised, based on these findings. 2. The distribution of blood platelets and of the different varieties of leucocytes in the strata of centrifugalized diluted blood has been investigated, and also the distribution ...

Homologous minicircles in Leishmania donovani [PDF]
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2002 Leishmania minicircular deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is arranged into different classes according to sequence. These classes differ substantially in sequence, despite species- and genus-specific regions, and are present in widely different copy numbers within and between Leishmania strains.

Proteomic analysis of the secretome of Leishmania donovani [PDF]
Genome Biology, 2008 Abstract Background Leishmania and other intracellular pathogens have evolved strategies that support invasion and persistence within host target cells. In some cases the underlying mechanisms involve the export of virulence factors into the host cell cytosol.

Synthesis and Antileishmanial Activity of 1,2,4,5-Tetraoxanes against Leishmania donovani [PDF]
, 2020 A chemically diverse range of novel tetraoxanes was synthesized and evaluated in vitro against intramacrophage amastigote forms of Leishmania donovani. All 15 tested tetraoxanes displayed activity, with IC50 values ranging from 2 to 45 µm.

In Vitro Screening Test Using Leishmania Promastigotes Stably Expressing mCherry Protein [PDF]
, 2014 Transgenic Leishmania major and Leishmania donovani axenic promastigotes constitutively expressing mCherry were used for in vitro antileishmanial drug screening. This method requires minimal sample manipulation and can be easily adapted to automatic drug
