Infectivity studies of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi isolated from non-ulcerated cutaneous leishmaniasis. [PDF]

Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo
ABSTRACT In Honduras, Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi, the etiological agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), is responsible for non-ulcerated cutaneous leishmaniasis (NUCL). We characterized NUCL and VL Honduran strains to understand intraspecies infectivity. Based on in-vitro assays, we aimed to elucidate certain host-parasite interactions in

Reproduction of Leishmania (Leishmania ) infantum chagasi in conditioned cell culture growth medium [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2006
Leishmanias can be produced by inoculation in conditioned McCoy cell culture growth medium (CGM). Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi (100 parasites) grown in NNN medium was inoculated in 2.5 mL CGM, kept in plates (24 wells) and its multiplication was observed for five days (120 hours).

Leishmania donovani is the only cause of visceral leishmaniasis in East Africa; previous descriptions of L. infantum and "L. archibaldi" from this region are a consequence of convergent evolution in the isoenzyme data [PDF]

, 2004
Isoenzyme-based studies have identified 3 taxa/species/'phylogenetic complexes' as agents of visceral leishmaniasis in Sudan: L. donovani, L. infantum and "L. archibaldi". However, these observations remain controversial.

Imidazolium salts as an alternative for anti-Leishmania drugs: Oxidative and immunomodulatory activities

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
In this study we explored the previously established leishmanicidal activity of a complementary set of 24 imidazolium salts (IS), 1-hexadecylimidazole (C16Im) and 1-hexadecylpyridinium chloride (C16PyrCl) against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis and ...

Subclinical Muscle Injuries in Dogs Infected with Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Pathology, 2012
Although canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) has been extensively studied, muscular damage due to Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi infection remains to be fully established. The aim of this study was to describe the electromyographic and histological changes, as well as search for the presence of amastigote forms of Leishmania spp, CD3+ T ...

Design of primer pairs for species-specific diagnosis of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi using PCR [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2012
The objective of this study was to design and evaluate new primers for species-specific detection of L. infantum chagasi using PCR. Two combinations of primer pairs were established with the aim of obtaining specific amplification products from the L. infantum chagasi 18S rRNA gene.

Development of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi in Its Natural Sandfly Vector Lutzomyia longipalpis [PDF]

The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2012
We analyzed the development of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi in its natural sandfly vector Lutzomyia longipalpis. In addition, we compared sandfly infections initiated with axenic amastigotes or promastigotes. Our data showed no important difference between Lu. longipalpis infection rates resulting from either type of infections. Furthermore,
