Early suppression of lymphoproliferative response in dogs with natural infection by Leishmania infantum. [PDF]
Dogs are the domestic reservoirs of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania infantum. Early detection of canine infections evolving to clinically patent disease may be important to leishmaniasis control.

Leishmaniasis: new approaches to disease control. [PDF]
The leishmaniases afflict the world's poorest populations. Among the two million new cases each year in the 88 countries where the disease is endemic (fig 1), it is estimated that 80% earn less than $2 a day.

Proteome Profiling of Leishmania Infantum Promastigotes
ABSTRACT. A proteome analysis of the promastigote stage of the trypanosomatid parasite Leishmania infantum (MON‐1 zymodeme) is described here for the first time. Total protein extracts were prepared at early logarithmic and stationary phases of replicate axenic cultures and processed by 2D electrophoresis (pH 3–10).

Leishmania infantum reactivation with secondary IgA nephropathy
We report a Leishmania infantum reactivation in an immunocompetent patient manifesting as visceral leishmaniasis with secondary IgA nephropathy nine years after an initial episode of mucosal leishmaniasis, which had been treated with liposomal amphotericin B.

Miltefosine induces metacaspase and PARP genes expression in Leishmania infantum
Objectives: Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death (PCD) that occurs in both animal and plant cells. Protozoan parasites possess metacaspase and these caspase-related proteases could be involved in the PCD pathways in these organisms ...

Maternal Leishmania infantum infection status has significant impact on leishmaniasis in offspring. [PDF]
Visceral Leishmaniasis is a deadly disease caused by Leishmania infantum, endemic in more than 98 countries across the globe. Although the most common means of transmission is via a sand fly vector, there is growing evidence that vertical transmission ...
