Hemostatic assessment of dogs associated with hepatic parasite load of Leishmania infantum chagasi [PDF]
Leishmania infantum chagasi liver parasite load was compared to hemostatic abnormalities, as well as to clinical, laboratorial, and histopathological findings in dogs with visceral leishmaniasis. The liver parasite load of 30 dogs L.

Attenuation of Leishmania infantum chagasi metacyclic promastigotes by sterol depletion. [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe infectious metacyclic promastigotes ofLeishmaniaprotozoa establish infection in a mammalian host after they are deposited into the dermis by a sand fly vector. SeveralLeishmaniavirulence factors promote infection, including the glycosylphosphatidylinositol membrane-anchored major surface protease (MSP).

Infectivity studies of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi isolated from non-ulcerated cutaneous leishmaniasis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT In Honduras, Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi, the etiological agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), is responsible for non-ulcerated cutaneous leishmaniasis (NUCL). We characterized NUCL and VL Honduran strains to understand intraspecies infectivity. Based on in-vitro assays, we aimed to elucidate certain host-parasite interactions in

Reproduction of Leishmania (Leishmania ) infantum chagasi in conditioned cell culture growth medium [PDF]
Leishmanias can be produced by inoculation in conditioned McCoy cell culture growth medium (CGM). Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi (100 parasites) grown in NNN medium was inoculated in 2.5 mL CGM, kept in plates (24 wells) and its multiplication was observed for five days (120 hours).

Subclinical Muscle Injuries in Dogs Infected with Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi [PDF]
Although canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) has been extensively studied, muscular damage due to Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi infection remains to be fully established. The aim of this study was to describe the electromyographic and histological changes, as well as search for the presence of amastigote forms of Leishmania spp, CD3+ T ...
