Antileishmanial activity of polycyclic derivatives
Parasite, 2005 33 polycyclic derivatives have been studied and tested on Leishmania donovani and L. major promastigotes. Their antileishmanial activity was assessed in vitro and an assay of their cytotoxicity was realized on human myelomonocytic cell line.

Changes in the Epidemiology of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in Northeastern Iran
Türkiye Parazitoloji Dergisi, 2020 The province of Khorasan-Razavi in the North East of Iran is an endemic area for anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL caused mainly by Leishmania tropica) and zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL caused mainly by Leishmania major).

Boundary behaviours of Leishmania mexicana: a hydrodynamic simulation study [PDF]
, 2018 It is well established that the parasites of the genus Leishmania exhibit complex surface interactions with the sandfly vector midgut epithelium, but no prior study has considered the details of their hydrodynamics. Here, the boundary behaviours of motile Leishmania mexicana promastigotes are explored in a computational study using the boundary element

Compressed AFM-IR hyperspectral nanoimaging of single Leishmania parasites [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Infrared hyperspectral imaging is a powerful approach in the field of materials and life sciences. However, the extension to modern sub-diffraction nanoimaging still remains a highly inefficient technique, as it acquires data via inherent sequential schemes.
arxiv
Frontiers in Public Health, 2020 Leishmania tropica and Leishmania major are both the main cause of anthroponotic (ACL) and zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL), respectively, in the Old World.

Isolation and molecular identification of cutaneous leishmaniasis in humans and dogs in middle Euphrates, Iraq [PDF]
Iraqi Journal of Veterinary SciencesIn Iraq, one of the endemic illnesses is cutaneous Leishmaniasis. This study aimed to characterize local isolates of Leishmania tropica and Leishmania major molecularly and determine how closely related they were to reference isolates from nearby nations.

Reward prediction errors arising from switches between major and minor modes in music: An fMRI study [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Evidence has accumulated that prediction error processing plays a role in the enjoyment of music listening. The present study examined listeners' neural responses to the signed reward prediction errors (RPEs) arising from switches between major and minor modes in music. We manipulated the final chord of J. S.
