Leishmania infection in cats and dogs housed together in an animal shelter reveals a higher parasite load in infected dogs despite a greater seroprevalence among cats

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background An outbreak of leishmaniosis was studied in cats and dogs housed together with no separation in an animal shelter in Israel. Methods The study included recording of clinical signs, serology for Leishmania infection by ELISA, PCR of blood for ...

New Se‐Compounds With Antileishmanial, Antitumor, and Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitory Properties

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 358, Issue 12, December 2025.
A small library of selenocompounds was evaluated for their antileishmanial, antitumoral, and human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) inhibitory properties. Two trifluoromethoxy‐substituted anilide derivatives (3 and 6) were the most effective ones against Leishmania major (L. major) and Leishmania infantum (L. infantum) promastigotes and also showed a promising

Oxidative Stress Modulation and Antileishmanial Activity of Salvinia auriculata

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
Ethanolic extract of Salvinia auriculata showed significant antioxidant and antileishmanial activities. Salviniside II, the major metabolite, was isolated, structurally characterized, and evaluated, but exhibited weaker antiparasitic effects when compared to the whole extract.

Natural infection of Didelphis aurita (Mammalia: Marsupialia) with Leishmania infantum in Brazil

Parasites & Vectors, 2012
Background The opossum Didelphis have been considered as natural hosts of Leishmania parasites in the New World, suggesting an important role in the epidemiology of Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL). Among six extant species that belong to the genus Didelphis,

Gene expression in Leishmania is regulated predominantly by gene dosage [PDF]

, 2017
Leishmania tropica, a unicellular eukaryotic parasite present in North and East Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian subcontinent, has been linked to large outbreaks of cutaneous leishmaniasis in displaced populations in Iraq, Jordan, and Syria. Here,

Fungal Biodiversity From the Atlantic Forest With Bioactive Metabolites Against Cutaneous Leishmaniasis

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity offers a rich source of bioactive compounds for drug discovery. We isolated Aspergillus fumigatus from compost in the Atlantic Forest and found its extract active against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis. Two crude extracts, I06 and I75, were selected for further study.

Infectiousness in a Cohort of Brazilian Dogs: Why Culling Fails to Control Visceral Leishmaniasis in Areas of High Transmission [PDF]

, 2002
The elimination of seropositive dogs in Brazil has been used to control zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis but with little success. To elucidate the reasons for this, the infectiousness of 50 sentinel dogs exposed to natural Leishmania chagasi infection was

Risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis in a new epidemic site in Amhara Region, Ethiopia [PDF]

, 2009
We conducted a case-control study to evaluate risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis during an epidemic in a previously unaffected district of Ethiopia. We also collected blood and bone marrow specimens from dogs in the outbreak villages.
