Leishmania amazonensis: Acidic organelles in amastigotes

Experimental Parasitology, 1988
Leishmania amastigotes are intracellular protozoan parasites which exclusively invade cells of the macrophage series and multiply within phagolysosomes. Recent studies showed that intracellular and isolated amastigotes of L. amazonesis are killed by amino acid esters which appear to be trapped within as yet unidentified, possibly acidified, "lysosome ...

Active Transport of Glutamate in Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2008
ABSTRACT. Leishmania spp. are the causative agents of leishmaniasis, a complex of diseases with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis is a main etiological agent of diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis. Leishmania spp., as other trypanosomatids, possess a metabolism based significantly on the consumption of amino

Histopathological studies of visceralized Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis in mice experimentally infected

Veterinary Parasitology, 2004
BALB/c, C57BL/6, and DBA/2 mice were subcutaneously infected in the left footpad by injecting 10(4) Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis amastigotes. Mice were sacrificed 20, 30, 40, 60 and 90 days post-infection. Fragments of liver, kidney, spleen, skin, and draining lymph node were collected for histological examination.

Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis and Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum sialic acids enhance macrophage infection

Cell Biology International
AbstractLeishmaniases affect millions of people around the world, caused by Leishmania parasites. Leishmania are transmitted by female sandflies from Phlebotominae subfamily during their blood meals. In mammals, promastigotes are phagocytosed mainly by macrophages, differentiate into amastigotes and multiply.
