A novel approach for feline sporotrichosis pathogen detection based on loop‐mediated isothermal amplification

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 474-484, August 2025.
Background – Sporotrichosis is a chronic, mycotic infection caused by fungi of the genus Sporothrix. Zoonotic sporotrichosis occurs mainly through S. brasiliensis transmission, resulting from the organism's traumatic introduction via scratches or bites, or contact with exudate from contaminated cats.

Increased transmission potential of Leishmania major/Leishmania infantum hybrids [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology, 2007
Development of Leishmania infantum/Leishmania major hybrids was studied in two sand fly species. In Phlebotomus papatasi, which supported development of L. major but not L. infantum, the hybrids produced heavy late-stage infections with high numbers of metacyclic promastigotes.

Current Distribution of Selected Vector‐borne Diseases in Domestic Dogs From Bucharest, Romania

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2025.
Serological testing of 317 dogs in Bucharest (2020‐2024) revealed an overall Canine vector‐borne diseases (CVBD) seroprevalence of 8.8%, with Dirofilaria immitis (12.62%) being the most common. Shelter and older dogs had higher infection rates. Climate change and vector expansion may influence pathogen spread, underscoring the need for enhanced ...

Canine antibody response to Phlebotomus perniciosus bites negatively correlates with the risk of Leishmania infantum transmission. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2011
BACKGROUND: Phlebotomine sand flies are blood-sucking insects that can transmit Leishmania parasites. Hosts bitten by sand flies develop an immune response against sand fly salivary antigens.

Biomarkers Associated With Leishmania infantum Exposure, Infection, and Disease in Dogs

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a vector-borne disease caused by the protozoan Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum species [syn. L. (L.) infantum chagasi species in the Americas] which is transmitted by the bite of a female phlebotomine sand fly.
