Nano‐Encapsulated Cinnamomum cassia Essential Oil in Combination With Fluconazole Exhibits Synergistic Activity Against Fluconazole‐Resistant Nakaseomyces glabratus and Pichia kudriavzevii

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Nano‐encapsulated Cinnamomum cassia essential oil (nano‐CC‐EO) showed in vitro antifungal activity against fluconazole‐resistant Nakaseomyces glabratus and Pichia kudriavzevii clinical isolates. Checkerboard assays revealed synergistic or additive interactions between nano‐CC‐EO and fluconazole in several isolates, without evidence of antagonism. These

Analysis and chromosomal mapping of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis amastigote expressed sequence tags

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007
The characterization of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) generated from a cDNA library of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis amastigotes is described. The sequencing of 93 clones generated new L. (L.) amazonensis ESTs from which 32% are not related to any

Leishmania amazonensis Infection in Nude Mice.

Experimental Animals, 1999
Leishmania amazonensis is an intracellular protozoan parasite of macrophages. Cutaneous leishmaniasis in an immunocompetent host begins as papules or nodules followed by ulceration at the site of promastigote inoculation. In this study, the pathological changes of cutaneous leishmaniasis lesions in T cell deficient nude mice were examined.

Axenic cultivation and characterization of Leishmania mexicana amastigote-like forms [PDF]

, 1992
A new method is described which has made possible the long-term axenic cultivation of Leishmania mexicana amastigote-like forms in Schneider's Drosophila medium supplemented with 20% (v/v) foetal calf serum.

Real-time imaging of Leishmania mexicana-infected early phagosomes: a study using primary macrophages generated from green fluorescent protein-Rab5 transgenic mice

, 2009
The small GTPase Rab5 is a key regulator of endosome/phagosome maturation and in intravesicular infections marks a phagosome stage at which decisions over pathogen replication or destruction are integrated.

Leishmania chitinase facilitates colonization of sand fly vectors and enhances transmission to mice [PDF]

, 2008
Chitinases of trypanosomatid parasites have been proposed to fulfil various roles in their blood-feeding arthropod vectors but so far none have been directly tested using a molecular approach.

Leishmania-Induced Dendritic Cell Migration and Its Potential Contribution to Parasite Dissemination

Microorganisms, 2021
Leishmania, an intracellular parasite species, causes lesions on the skin and in the mucosa and internal organs. The dissemination of infected host cells containing Leishmania is crucial to parasite survival and the establishment of infection.

Tegumentary Leishmaniasis Associated With Immune Reconstitution in an HIV Patient—A Case Report

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT HIV‐associated Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS) may significantly alter the immunopathological presentation of American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis (ATL), occasionally causing paradoxical clinical exacerbations. We report the long‐term follow‐up of a 39‐year‐old female coinfected with HIV and disseminated mucocutaneous ...
