Seroepidemiology of Leishmania infantum in rural dogs in Golestan province, Iran

Medical Laboratory Journal, 2015
Background and Objective: Dogs have been introduced as a major reservoir of Leishmania infantum.  Concerning the increased sporadic reports of humeral visceral leishmaniasis in Golestan province, we aimed to study seroepidemiology of leishmania infantum ...

Serological and molecular survey of Leishmania parasites in apparently healthy dogs in the West Bank, Palestine

Parasites & Vectors, 2012
Background Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is caused by Leishmania infantum in all Mediterranean countries. The Leishmania parasite is transmitted by the bite of a corresponding sand fly vector and primarily maintained in nature by wild and domestic ...

Recombinant LPG3 Protein From Leishmania chagasi as an Antigen for the Diagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Structural basis of ligand selectivity in FAD/NAD(P)H‐dependent dehydrogenases: insights from trypanothione reductase and type II NADH dehydrogenase

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract FAD/NAD(P)H‐dependent dehydrogenases form a structurally conserved family of redox enzymes that participate in essential metabolic processes across parasites and higher organisms. Among them, trypanothione reductase (TR) is a key component of the redox metabolism of Leishmania species and represents an attractive target for antileishmanial ...

Demographics and travel history of imported and autochthonous cases of leishmaniosis in dogs in the United States and Canada, 2006 to 2019

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2021
Background Leishmania infantum infections are reported in foxhounds throughout the United States (US) and Canada, but only rarely in other dog breeds. A seroprevalence report from 2006 documented leishmaniosis in foxhounds (8.9%) tested in the US between

Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer

Immunology, Volume 178, Issue 3, Page 377-386, July 2026.
Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...

Transmission potential of paromomycin-resistant Leishmania infantum and Leishmania donovani

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2019
AbstractObjectivesFormer studies demonstrated quick selection of paromomycin resistance for Leishmania infantum and Leishmania donovani accompanied by increased fitness. The present study aimed to interpret these findings in an epidemiological context by comparing infection of WT and experimentally derived paromomycin-resistant strains in the sand fly ...

Relationships Between European Wildcats and Domestic Cats in an Area of Sympatry: Exploring Key Conservation Questions on Hybridization and Disease Transmission

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 321-333, June 2026.
We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.
