Amplification of the H locus in Leishmania infantum

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 1994
We have selected for a Leishmania infantum cell line resistant to high levels of methotrexate (MTX). The resulting cells were 1233-fold more resistant than wild-type and contained amplified H-region circles. Homologous genes to the antifolate resistant ltdh gene and to the P-glycoprotein ltpgpA gene of Leishmania tarentolae were observed to be ...

Susceptibility of Cebus nigrivittatus to Leishmania infantum

The Journal of Parasitology, 1986
is associated with nausea, vomiting, and deafness with tinnitus. Such afflicted individuals cannot walk and have to lie down in bed without turning over. Our observations on the motility of dolphins that were pushed back into the water or captured in a pool indicated a disturbance of equilibrium. Odontoceti suffering from acute octavus neuropathy might

Mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis due to Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum: Biochemical Characterization

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1990
A vegetative mass in the right nasal cavity of a 62-year-old man from Palma de Mallorca, Spain, was found to be due to Leishmania. The organism was isolated in culture and characterized by in situ hybridization, Southern blot hybridization, and isoenzyme analysis; it was thus demonstrated to be the most common enzyme variant 1 (MON 1) of Leishmania ...

Coexistence of Leishmania tropica and Leishmania infantum in Sefrou province, Morocco

Acta Tropica, 2014
Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) has been recently emerged in new foci, posing a public health problem. Increasing cases of CL have been reported during recent years in Sefrou province, a previously non-endemic area. The present study was designed for epidemiological and parasitological characterization of the disease for the first time in this area.

First evidence of autochthonous cases of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum in horse (Equus caballus) in the Americas and mixed infection of Leishmania infantum and Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis

Veterinary Parasitology, 2013
This study reports the first evidence of infection by Leishmania infantum in Equus caballus in Americas and the first mixed infection of L. infantum/Leishmania braziliensis on this mammalian species in the world. The diagnoses was based on presence of parasites in lesions and bone marrow aspirates, their identification by using specific primers for L ...

Feline leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum in Italy

Veterinary Parasitology, 2002
A case of leishmaniosis in domestic cats (Felis catus domesticus) is described. The subject showed a nodular lesion on the eyelid. The diagnosis was achieved by serological, parasitological, and light and electron microscopic investigations. By molecular techniques the aetiological agent was identified as belonging to Leishmania infantum, the species ...

Putrescine transport system in Leishmania infantum promastigotes

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1989
A transport system for putrescine in Leishmania infantum (= L. donovani infantum) promastigotes has been identified and characterized by measuring the uptake of radioactively labelled putrescine. Putrescine uptake was time- and temperature-dependent without any accumulation taking place at 0 degrees C. Uptake of putrescine was maximal at pH values near

Leishmania infantum: Infection of macrophages in vitro with promastigotes

International Journal for Parasitology, 1996
Leishmania infantum promastigotes in axenic culture exhibit limited infectivity for mouse peritoneal macrophages (M phi) in vitro using standard culture conditions (37 degrees C; 95% air/5% CO2) compared to Leishmania donovani promastigotes which induce notable infections.
