Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.1,2‐Disubstituted ferrocene analogues bearing hydantoin or rhodanine synthons were synthesised and assessed for antitrypanosomatid activity. An antileishmanial early lead, analogue 23, acting through ROS generation and hence oxidative stress, was uncovered.

CRISPR-Cas9-Mediated Genome Editing in
mBio, 2015 The prokaryotic CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)-Cas9, an RNA-guided endonuclease, has been shown to mediate efficient genome editing in a wide variety of organisms.

Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer
Immunology, Volume 178, Issue 3, Page 377-386, July 2026.Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...

Adenine and adenosine salvage in Leishmania donovani [PDF]
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2013 6-aminopurine metabolism in Leishmania is unique among trypanosomatid pathogens since this genus expresses two distinct routes for adenine salvage: adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) and adenine deaminase (AAH). To evaluate the relative contributions of APRT and AAH, adenine salvage was evaluated in Δaprt, Δaah, and Δaprt/Δaah null mutants of L ...

Glyoxalase I gene deletion mutants of Leishmania donovani exhibit reduced methylglyoxal detoxification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND:Glyoxalase I is a metalloenzyme of the glyoxalase pathway that plays a central role in eliminating the toxic metabolite methyglyoxal. The protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani possesses a unique trypanothione dependent glyoxalase system ...

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Giardia lamblia, a protozoan parasite that causes diarrhea in humans, contains two centrins implicated in cellular morphology and cell division. To identify proteins interacting with each G. lamblia centrin (GlCent), we performed a yeast two‐hybrid assay.

Carbon Dioxide Assimilation by Leishmania donovani [PDF]
Nature, 1960 WHILE studying the glucose metabolism of Leishmania donovani, the protozoan organism causing visceral leishmaniasis, it has been found that cell suspensions of this organism in a saline-bicarbonate buffer containing glucose can assimilate, a measurable amount of carbon dioxide along with the formation of different acidic end products1.

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Extrahepatic portal venous obstruction (EHPVO) is a leading cause of prehepatic portal hypertension in children, particularly in developing countries. While upper gastrointestinal bleeding is the most common presentation, EHPVO may rarely manifest predominantly with hematological abnormalities due to hypersplenism, posing a diagnostic ...
