IL-12 and IFN-γ in Response to Leishmania Infantum Antigens in Felines From an Endemic Area for Visceral Leishmaniasis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis is a potentially fatal zoonosis with an increasing incidence. Most infected felines present the disease in its subclinical form and demonstrate greater resistance to parasitemia than dogs. However, the role of cellular immunity in felines is still poorly understood. This study measured serum levels of interleukin (IL)‐12

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

ALTERAÇÕES DA MATRIZ EXTRACELULAR ESPLÊNICA EM CÃES NATURALMENTE INFECTADOS COM Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi [PDF]
Objetivou-se estudar as alterações da matriz extracelular no baço de cães naturalmente infectados com Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum chagasi correlacionando-as com aspectos clínicos, histopatológicos e parasitológicos. Foram utilizados 18 cães, divididos em três grupos: seis animais não infectados (grupo controle) e doze animais infectados. Todos sem
