Clinical outcome, imaging and histopathological findings of liver cirrhosis in dogs
Abstract Cirrhosis is a severe and irreversible condition resulting from chronic liver injury, characterised by extensive fibrosis and regenerative nodules. This report describes three dogs with cirrhosis. The main clinical findings included ascites, reduced body condition score and inappetence. Anaemia, thrombocytopenia, hypoalbuminaemia, and elevated

Unusual report of an immunocompetent patient with atypical cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum in Minas Gerais, Brazil [PDF]
Cutaneous leishmaniasis is endemic in Minas Gerais, Brazil; however, data on the circulating species remain limited. This study identified Leishmania species in he skin samples of patients in Montes Claros using molecular methods.

This work highlights the satisfactory pharmacokinetic profile of two benzenesulfonylpiperazine lead candidates, followed by in vivo assessment in a murine model of visceral leishmaniasis. This assessment identified compound 2 as moderately active at a lower dose, but its efficacy increased at higher doses, though with concerns regarding safety.

Treatment of Leishmania infantum Infections in Dogs
Dogs are reservoir hosts of the zoonotic parasite Leishmania infantum, the causative agent of canine leishmaniosis. Antiparasitic drugs that are commonly used in dogs include allopurinol, miltefosine, and meglumine antimoniate. Treatment success is characterized by an improvement of disease signs, reduction in parasite load, as well as prevention of ...

From genomes to vaccines: Leishmania as a model:Leishmania as a model [PDF]
The 35 Mb genome of Leishmania should be sequenced by late 2002. It contains approximately 8500 genes that will probably translate into more than 10 000 proteins.

Modeled structure of trypanothione reductase of Leishmania infantum
Trypanothione reductase is an important target enzyme for structure-based drug design against Leishmania. We used homology modeling to construct a three-dimensional structure of the trypanothione reductase (TR) of Leishmania infantum. The structure shows acceptable Ramachandran statistics and a remarkably different active site from glutathione ...

Accelerated healing of cutaneous leishmaniasis in non-healing BALB/c mice using water soluble amphotericin B-polymethacrylic acid. [PDF]
Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a neglected tropical disease that causes prominent skin scaring. No water soluble, non-toxic, short course and low cost treatment exists. We developed a new water soluble amphotericin B-polymethacrylic acid (AmB-PMA) using

A rare case of lingual mucosal leishmaniasis caused by reactivation of Leishmania infantum infection
Background Leishmania infantum is the only prevalent Leishmania species in Europe and manifesting predominantly as cutaneous or visceral leishmaniasis, whereas new world species like Leishmania (L.) braziliensis are well known pathogens in mucocutaneous ...
