Mechanisms of Immune Evasion, Dissemination, and Persistence in Leishmania amazonensis Infection
Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Leishmania amazonensis is one of the etiological agents of cutaneous leishmaniasis in its localised form. Moreover, this parasite can cause more severe disease conditions, such as diffuse and disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis. The development of more severe clinical manifestations is associated with the parasite's ability to establish a ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.A series of 2,3‐dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]thiazepine derivatives have been synthesized and characterized using IR, NMR, GC‐MS and microanalysis. The compounds were found to exhibit variable activity against Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis and Salmonella typhi with MIC values ranging from 1.88–15 mg/mL.

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania spp. and transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies, affects almost 1,000,000 people annually across more than 90 countries. In Mexico, growing evidence of locally acquired transmission in northwestern states makes ecoepidemiological work increasingly urgent.
