International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2020 Wild mammals are susceptible to infection by Leishmania parasites. Although canine leishmaniasis is widely distributed in mainland Portugal, the sylvatic cycle of the parasite remains poorly understood. In this study, the occurrence of L.

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 2, March 2025.Abstract Plant‐derived polysaccharides have emerged as sustainable biopolymers for fabricating nanoparticles (polysaccharide‐based nanomaterials [PS‐NPs]), presenting unique opportunities to enhance food functionality and human health. PS‐NPs exhibit exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability, and structural versatility, enabling their integration ...

Parasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 3, March 2025.ABSTRACT Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is a zoonotic disease of great worldwide importance and can be prevented by vaccinating seronegative dogs. The objective of the present systematic review and meta‐analysis is to verify the efficacy rate of vaccines tested in dogs against CVL or L. infantum infection. We used PRISMA guidelines for this review

Determining Leishmania Infection Levels by Automatic Analysis of Microscopy Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Analysis of microscopy images is one important tool in many fields of biomedical research, as it allows the quantification of a multitude of parameters at the cellular level. However, manual counting of these images is both tiring and unreliable and ultimately very time-consuming for biomedical researchers.

Thymic Microenvironment Is Modified by Malnutrition and Leishmania infantum Infection
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019 Detrimental effects of malnutrition on immune responses to pathogens have long been recognized and it is considered a main risk factor for various infectious diseases, including visceral leishmaniasis (VL).

Exposure to West Nile Virus in Wild Lagomorphs in Spanish Mediterranean Ecosystems
Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 2, Page 207-214, March 2025.ABSTRACT Background West Nile virus (WNV) is the most widely distributed mosquito‐borne flavivirus. Over the past decade, its spread across Europe has raised significant concerns for both public and animal health. Although WNV exposure has been evidenced in various wild mammal species in Spain, no seroepidemiological studies have been conducted on this

RIPK1–RIPK3–MLKL-Associated Necroptosis Drives Leishmania infantum Killing in Neutrophils
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Necroptosis is a pro-inflammatory cell death, which happens in the context of caspase-8 inhibition, allowing activation of the receptor interacting protein kinase 1–receptor interacting protein kinase 3–mixed lineage kinase domain-like (RIPK1–RIPK3–MLKL)
