Heterogeneities in leishmania infantum infection : using skin parasite burdens to identify highly infectious dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: The relationships between heterogeneities in host infection and infectiousness (transmission to arthropod vectors) can provide important insights for disease management.

Structures of the Leishmania infantum polymerase beta [PDF]

open access: yesDNA Repair, 2014
Protozoans of the genus Leishmania, the pathogenic agent causing leishmaniasis, encode the family X DNA polymerase Li Pol β. Here, we report the first crystal structures of Li Pol β. Our pre- and post-catalytic structures show that the polymerase adopts the common family X DNA polymerase fold. However, in contrast to other family X DNA polymerases, the

Evolutionary and geographical history of the Leishmania donovani complex with a revision of current taxonomy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Leishmaniasis is a geographically widespread severe disease, with an increasing incidence of two million cases per year and 350 million people from 88 countries at risk. The causative agents are species of Leishmania, a protozoan flagellate.

"Leishmania infantum" : molecular analysis for identification of potential virulence factors and genes of diagnostic use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Leishmania infantum is the causative agents of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis, a fatal disease if left untreated. In Southern Europe, the number of HIV/Leishmania infantum co-infections is increasing and becomes an emerging concern for the public health.

Canine Leishmaniosis in Greece: An Updated Countrywide Serological Study and Associated Risk Factors

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Canine leishmaniosis (Leishmania infantum) is a zoonotic disease that affects dogs worldwide. Greece is enzootic for this disease, and updated data for its current distribution are of major importance.

Role of the lipoxin A4 receptor in the development of neutrophil extracellular traps in Leishmania infantum infection

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Neutrophils play an immunomodulatory role through the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). NETs are released in response to Leishmania infection, but the mechanism of NET extrusion has not been elucidated.

Final comments on an interesting taxonomic dilemma: Leishmania infantum versus Leishmania infantum chagasi [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006
: donot forget the law of priorityfl (Dantas-Torres 2006) Œ onthe concise review article of Lainson and Rangel (2005)has emerged as the basis of an interesting debate on theaetiological agent of American visceral leishmaniasis, i.e.,the taxonomic dilemma concerning its correct nomen-clature.

Visualisation of Leishmania donovani fluorescent hybrids during early stage development in the sand fly vector. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: The Leishmania protozoan parasites cause devastating human diseases. Leishmania have been considered to replicate clonally, without genetic exchange.
