Phosphomonoesterases of Leishmania mexicana mexicana and other flagellates

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1987
Amastigotes and log-phase promastigotes of Leishmania mexicana mexicana contained distinct acid phosphatase, 3'-nucleotidase and 5'-nucleotidase activities, distinguishable by their response to pH and inhibitors. Both tartrate-sensitive and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase were present in the two forms, amastigotes possessed less tartrate-resistant ...

Sterols of ketoconazole-inhibited Leishmania mexicana mexicana promastigotes

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1985
Leishmania mexicana mexicana promastigotes grown with cholesterol, supplied in natural products as the free sterol and as cholesteryl esters, were exposed to [2-14C]mevalonate and to the antimycotic drug ketoconazole. Growth was inhibited and cholesterol and 14 alpha-methyl sterols accumulated in free and esterified forms (cholesterol much greater than

Leishmania tropica and Leishmania mexicana: Cross-immunity in mice

Experimental Parasitology, 1978
Abstract The effect of a previous or concurrent Leishmania tropica major infection on a L. mexicana infection was studied. Mice which were recovering from or had recovered from a L. tropica infection were found to be totally resistant to L. mexicana. Infection of mice already carrying a L. mexicana infection with L.

Pentose phosphate metabolism in Leishmania mexicana

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2003
The metabolism of pentose phosphates was studied in Leishmania mexicana promastigotes. Each of the enzymes of the classical pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) has been identified and specific activities measured. Functioning of the PPP was demonstrated in non-growing cells by measuring the evolution of 14CO2 from [1-14C]D-glucose and [6-14C]D-glucose ...

Heme binding to Leishmania mexicana amazonensis

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1988
Leishmania mexicana amazonensis is a pathogenic parasite whose growth, due to a biosynthetic deficiency, is dependent on a supply of exogenous heme. Utilizing [55Fe]hemin, we have demonstrated that heme binding to non-dividing cultured promastigotes of L. m.
