Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis Infection in Mice Treated With FTY720
In transplantation, parasite diseases are transmitted from the donor, or appear as de novo infections, or activate from a dormant insource as a consequence of immunosuppression. Clinical findings have shown that an intact immune system is crucial to prevent recurrence of Leishmania infection.

"Leishmania infantum" : molecular analysis for identification of potential virulence factors and genes of diagnostic use [PDF]
Leishmania infantum is the causative agents of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis, a fatal disease if left untreated. In Southern Europe, the number of HIV/Leishmania infantum co-infections is increasing and becomes an emerging concern for the public health.

The role of leishmania proteophosphoglycans in sand fly transmission and infection of the Mammalian host. [PDF]
Leishmania are transmitted by the bite of their sand fly vector and this has a significant influence on the virulence of the resulting infection. From our studies into the interaction between parasite, vector, and host we have uncovered an important ...

Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis and Leishmania infantum (=Leishmania chagasi) are protozoa that cause American cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis, respectively. These diseases show a high incidence in developing countries such as Brazil. The treatments used for leishmaniasis are still limited due to their high cost and toxicity.

In Vitro and In Vivo Activity of a Palladacycle Complex on Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis
Antitumor cyclopalladated complexes with low toxicity to laboratory animals have shown leishmanicidal effect. These findings stimulated us to test the leishmanicidal property of one palladacycle compound called DPPE 1.2 on Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, an agent of simple and diffuse forms of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Amazon region, Brazil ...

Effects of Brazilian propolis on Leishmania amazonensis [PDF]
Leishmaniasis, an endemic parasitosis that leads to chronic cutaneous, mucocutaneous or visceral lesions, is part of those diseases, which still requires improved control tools. Propolis has shown activities against different bacteria, fungi, and parasites.

Chicken blood provides a suitable meal for the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis and does not inhibit Leishmania development in the gut [PDF]
Background The aim of this study was to address the role of chickens as bloodmeal sources for female Lutzomyia longipalpis and to test whether chicken blood is harmful to Leishmania parasite development within the sand flies.
