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.

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.

Treatment Outcome of the Drug-resistant Zoonotic Cutaneous Leishmaniasis by Glucantime

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2017
Background: Resistance of Leishmania species to antimonial drugs has increased. Hence, in the present study Leishmania major isolates were collected from patients with resistance phenotype and the presence/absence of resistance to Glucantime was ...
