Vaccination of C57BL/10 mice against cutaneous leishmaniasis using killed promastigotes of different strains and species of Leishmania Vacinação de camundongos C57BL/10 contra leishmaniose com promastigotas mortas de diferentes cepas e espécies de Leishmania

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2002
Antigenic extracts from five Leishmania stocks were used to vaccinate C57BL/10 mice. The Leishvacin® and PH8 monovalent vaccine yielded the highest IFN-gamma levels in the supernatants of spleen cell culture from vaccinated animals.

Autophagic Induction Greatly Enhances Leishmania major Intracellular Survival Compared to Leishmania amazonensis in CBA/j-Infected Macrophages

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
CBA mouse macrophages control Leishmania major infection yet are permissive to Leishmania amazonensis. Few studies have been conducted to assess the role played by autophagy in Leishmania infection.

Distinct Macrophage Fates after in vitro Infection with Different Species of Leishmania: Induction of Apoptosis by Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, but Not by Leishmania (Viannia) guyanensis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Leishmania is an intracellular parasite in vertebrate hosts, including man. During infection, amastigotes replicate inside macrophages and are transmitted to healthy cells, leading to amplification of the infection.

DC-SIGN Mediates the Interaction Between Neutrophils and Leishmania amazonensis-Infected Dendritic Cells to Promote DC Maturation and Parasite Elimination

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
BackgroundLeishmaniasis is a neglected arthropod-borne disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Successful Leishmania infections require the mitigation of immune cell functions leading to parasite survival and proliferation.

Systemic treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis assessed systemic treatments for cutaneous leishmaniasis across 83 studies and 4603 patients. Treatment efficacies of meglumine antimoniate, miltefosine, azoles, pentamidine, and liposomal amphotericin B varied by region and species. Miltefosine showed consistent evidence across multiple settings.
