T helper1/T helper2 cells and resistance/susceptibility to Leishmania infection : is this paradigm still relevant?

, 2012
Work in large part on Leishmania major in the 1980s identified two distinct apparently counter-regulatory CD4 T cell populations, T helper (h)1 and Th2, that controlled resistance/susceptibility to infection respectively.

"Leishmania infantum" : molecular analysis for identification of potential virulence factors and genes of diagnostic use [PDF]

, 2004
Leishmania infantum is the causative agents of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis, a fatal disease if left untreated. In Southern Europe, the number of HIV/Leishmania infantum co-infections is increasing and becomes an emerging concern for the public health.

Reinfection in American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis: Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes in the Hamster Model [PDF]

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1998
There is no clear understanding of the outcome of reinfection in New World cutaneous leishmaniasis, and its role in the relationship to the development of protection or secondary disease.

Leishmania major Infection in Humanized Mice Induces Systemic Infection and Provokes a Nonprotective Human Immune Response

, 2012
Background: Leishmania (L.) species are the causative agent of leishmaniasis. Due to the lack of efficient vaccine candidates, drug therapies are the only option to deal with cutaneous leishmaniasis.

Isolation and molecular identification of cutaneous leishmaniasis in humans and dogs in middle Euphrates, Iraq [PDF]

Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences
In 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.

Predominance of Leishmania major and rare occurrence of Leishmania tropica with haplotype variability at the center of Iran

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background: Leishmania major is a causative agent of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in the center of Iran, Abarkouh district. Molecular characterization and precise incrimination of Leishmania species was carried out to perform controlling measurements

Aloe vera in Food Preservation: Harnessing Bioactive Constituents for Clean‐Label Innovation and Safety Assurance

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Aloe vera‐derived biopolymers and nanoformulations enhance antimicrobial, antioxidant, and barrier functions in clean‐label edible coatings and films, whereas safety‐critical anthraquinone thresholds and regulatory constraints shape their translational potential.

The Geographical Distribution of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Causative Agents in Iran and Its Neighboring Countries, A Review

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.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Heterogeneity of cysteine proteinases in Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania major.

Brazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologica, 1994
Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) with acrylamide copolymerized with gelatin (substrate-SDS-PAGE) was used to compare promastigote proteinases from two Leishmania species (L. braziliensis and L. major-like). Substrate-SDS-PAGE resolved at least 6 distinct proteinase activities with relative molecular masses between 20
