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.

Serum Cytokine Responses over the Entire Clinical-Immunological Spectrum of HumanLeishmania (L.) infantum chagasiInfection [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2016
The clinical-immunological spectrum of humanLeishmania (L.) infantum chagasiinfection in Amazonian Brazil was recently reviewed based on clinical, DTH, and IFAT (IgG) evaluations that identified five profiles: three asymptomatic (asymptomatic infection, AI; subclinical resistant infection, SRI; and indeterminate initial infection, III) and two ...

Molecular approaches for a better understanding of the epidemiology and population genetics of Leishmania. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Molecular approaches are being used increasingly for epidemiological studies of visceral and cutaneous leishmaniases. Several molecular markers resolving genetic differences between Leishmania parasites at species and strain levels have been developed to

Comparative analysis of biological aspects of Leishmania infantum strains.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Leishmania infantum infantum (LII) is one of the species that causes visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in the Old World, while L. infantum chagasi (LIC) is present in the New World.

Proteophosophoglycans regurgitated by Leishmania-infected sand flies target the L-arginine metabolism of host macrophages to promote parasite survival [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
All natural Leishmania infections start in the skin; however, little is known of the contribution made by the sand fly vector to the earliest events in mammalian infection, especially in inflamed skin that can rapidly kill invading parasites.

Comparative expression profiling of Leishmania: modulation in gene expression between species and in different host genetic backgrounds. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Genome sequencing of Leishmania species that give rise to a range of disease phenotypes in the host has revealed highly conserved gene content and synteny across the genus.

Diagnóstico molecular e frequência de anticorpos anti-Leishmania infantum chagasi em cães do município de Belém, Pará

open access: yesPesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2014
A leishmaniose visceral é uma enfermidade cujo agente etiológico no Brasil é o protozoário Leishmania infantum chagasi. Os cães são considerados reservatórios urbanos da doença, sendo indicadores da ocorrência de casos humanos.

Further evidence associating IgG1, but not IgG2, with susceptibility to canine visceral leishmaniasis caused byLeishmania (L.) infantum chagasi-infection [PDF]

open access: yesParasite, 2017
We present here a cross-sectional study analyzing the IgG1 and IgG2 immune responses to natural canine Leishmania (L.) infantum chagasi-infection and their relationships with delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in 50 mongrel dogs with previous positive serodiagnoses (IFAT-IgG) (56% with subclinical status [= apparently healthy] and 44% clinically sick),

Impact of LbSapSal Vaccine in Canine Immunological and Parasitological Features before and after Leishmania chagasi-Challenge.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Dogs represent the most important domestic reservoir of L. chagasi (syn. L. infantum). A vaccine against canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) would be an important tool for decreasing the anxiety related to possible L.

Preclinical diagnosis of American visceral leishmaniasis during early onset of humanLeishmania (L.) infantum chagasi-infection [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens and Global Health, 2014
American visceral leishmaniasis (AVL) is an infectious disease, often with long-duration evolution, caused by Leishmania (L.) infantum chagasi. However, although the disease is considered the major clinical manifestation of the link between L. (L.) i.
