Leishmania major: a compassionate parasite?

Trends in Parasitology, 2001
Parasites live at the expense of their host. To ensure survival of the parasite genome, it is important that the host survives at least until successful transmission of the parasite. The level of tetrahydrobiopterin (H4B) in Leishmania major parasites plays a crucial role in the development of the insect stage of the parasite into the metacyclic ...

Leishmanicidal and apoptotic activities of oleuropein on Leishmania major

Int. Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2014
Leishmania is a unicellular protozoan parasite causing a wide range of human diseases ranging from localized self-healing cutaneous lesions to fatal visceral infections.The aim of the present study is to assess the cytotoxic, anti-proliferative, and apoptotic effects of oleuropein on Leishmania major promastigotes (MHOM/SA/84/JISH) and to compare its ...

Cutaneous leishmaniasis in Nepal: Leishmania major as a cause

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2008
Nepal is endemic for visceral leishmaniasis; however, recently a solitary report of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) was recorded. The present report describes a CL case in a Nepalese woman, initially referred as a case of basal cell carcinoma. Histopathological examination, culture and PCR analysis of lesions revealed it to be a case of CL.

Expression and subcellular localization of ORC1 in Leishmania major

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2008
The mechanism of DNA replication is highly conserved in eukaryotes, with the process being preceded by the ordered assembly of pre-replication complexes (pre-RCs). Pre-RC formation is triggered by the association of the origin replication complex (ORC) with chromatin. Leishmania major appears to have only one ORC ortholog, ORC1.
