Plasmenylethanolamine synthesis in Leishmania major [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2016
SummaryEthanolamine glycerophospholipids are ubiquitous cell membrane components. Trypanosomatid parasites of the genus Leishmania synthesize the majority of their ethanolamine glycerophospholipids as 1‐O‐alk‐1′‐enyl‐2‐acyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphoethanolamine or plasmenylethanolamine (PME) through the Kennedy pathway.

Clinical Presentation of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Abstract Background Leishmania major is a protozoan parasite with a highly polarised cell shape that depends upon endocytosis and exocytosis from a single area of the plasma membrane, the flagellar pocket.

Increased transmission potential of Leishmania major/Leishmania infantum hybrids [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology, 2007
Development of Leishmania infantum/Leishmania major hybrids was studied in two sand fly species. In Phlebotomus papatasi, which supported development of L. major but not L. infantum, the hybrids produced heavy late-stage infections with high numbers of metacyclic promastigotes.

Molecular Identification of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Species in the Northcentral Iranian Province of Alborz: Is There a New Focus on Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in the Province?

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2023
Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is an endemic infection in the Middle East, including Iran that is also spreading to new foci. We aimed to determine the leishmaniasis species causing CL in Alborz province.

The first detection of Leishmania major in naturally infected Sergentomyia minuta in Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Phlebotomine sandflies of the genus Sergentomyia are widely distributed throughout the Old World. It has been suggested that Sergentomyia spp are involved in the transmission of Leishmania in India and Africa, whereas Phlebotomus spp are thought to be ...

In Vitro Screening Test Using Leishmania Promastigotes Stably Expressing mCherry Protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Transgenic Leishmania major and Leishmania donovani axenic promastigotes constitutively expressing mCherry were used for in vitro antileishmanial drug screening. This method requires minimal sample manipulation and can be easily adapted to automatic drug
