The effect of Marigold flower extracts on growth of Leishmania. [PDF]
This study searched in the inhibiting potency of different concentrations (12.5, 25, 50 and 100 µg/mL) of both aqueous and methanol extracts of marigold plant flower Calendula officinalis against the promastigote of Leismania major, L. donovani and

Genome-wide mapping reveals single-origin chromosome replication in Leishmania, a eukaryotic microbe [PDF]
Background DNA replication initiates on defined genome sites, termed origins. Origin usage appears to follow common rules in the eukaryotic organisms examined to date: all chromosomes are replicated from multiple origins, which display variations in ...

Proteomic analysis of Leishmania mexicana differentiation
We have resolved the proteome of axenically differentiated Leishmania mexicana parasites by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE), employing optimised, robust and reproducible procedures, and visualised (by silver staining) approximately 2000 protein species in each of three developmental stages: procyclic promastigotes, metacyclic promastigotes ...

Native rodent species are unlikely sources of infection for Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis along the Transoceanic Highway in Madre de Dios, Peru. [PDF]
An estimated 2.3 million disability-adjusted life years are lost globally from leishmaniasis. In Peru's Amazon region, the department of Madre de Dios (MDD) rises above the rest of the country in terms of the annual incidence rates of human leishmaniasis.

Intra- and interspecific polymorphisms ofLeishmania donovani andL. tropica minicircle DNA [PDF]
A pair of degenerate polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers (LEI-1, TCG GAT CC[C,T] [G,C]TG GGT AGG GGC GT; LEI-2, ACG GAT CC[G,C] [G,C][A,C]C TAT [A,T]TT ACA CC) defining a 0.15-kb segment ofLeishmania minicircle DNA was constructed.
