Cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania tropica in Algeria [PDF]
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2008 Cutaneous leishmaniasis is endemic in Algeria, but clinical and parasitological data from this area are scarce. In order to document the transmission of this disease in a peri-urban setting, cutaneous lesions from patients living in Constantine City and surrounding areas were spotted on filter paper for diagnosis and species identification using real ...

Archives of Dermatology, 1977
To the Editor.— The article on Leishmania tropica infections in travellers by Drs Rau, Dubin, and Taylor (112:197, 1976) was an excellent summary of the clinical and pathologic findings of this disease. However, I think that their conclusion not to treat this disease on the basis on four cases and a deficiency in the medical literature should not be ...

Leishmania tropica Infections-Reply
Archives of Dermatology, 1977In Reply.— We appreciate Dr Long's comments and his sharing of his experience and expertise in the therapy of oriental sore. In our article we stated that "the best management of uncomplicated cases of acute cutaneous leishmaniasis ( L tropica ) may be to observe the patient and withhold treatment." Our recommendation was aimed at acute ...

Toxicity of bilirubin to Leishmania tropica promastigotes
Experimental Parasitology, 1976Abstract Treatment of Leishmania tropica promastigotes with bilirubin results in loss of viability and death of the cells. A concentration of 0.1 m M is sufficient to cause complete inhibition of growth. Bilirubin inhibits the uptake of 2-deoxy- d -glucose and l -methionine. It increases the efflux of intracellularly accumulated sugars (both free

Leishmania tropica: Uptake of methionine by promastigotes
Experimental Parasitology, 1977Abstract Promastigotes of Leishmania tropica transport methionine against a concentration gradient through a saturable system. This concentrative uptake requires metabolic energy and is sensitive to temperature and sulfhydryl reagents such as N -ethyl maleimide. Intracellular methionine exchanges with external methionine.

Thymoquinone Effect on Leishmania tropica/infantum and Leishmania-Infected Macrophages
Acta Parasitologica, 2023Leishmania is a parasitic protozoan that tries to enter and amplify within macrophages. Macrophage cells are also immune defense cells that phagocyte many microbes like bacteria, fungi, as well as parasites like Leishmania spp. However, they are unable to kill this parasite that resides in the phagosomes of contaminated macrophages and multiplies in ...

Coexistence of Leishmania tropica and Leishmania infantum in Sefrou province, Morocco
Acta Tropica, 2014Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) has been recently emerged in new foci, posing a public health problem. Increasing cases of CL have been reported during recent years in Sefrou province, a previously non-endemic area. The present study was designed for epidemiological and parasitological characterization of the disease for the first time in this area.

Leishmania tropica in Egypt: an undesirable import
Tropical Medicine & International Health, 1996SummaryCutaneous as well as visceral leishmaniasis has been previously reported in Egypt. The former clinical manifestation is attributed to Leishmania major, the latter to L. infantum. In this study, L. tropica was isolated from an Egyptian labourer returning from Saudi Arabia.

Leishmania tropica: Differences in the antigenicity of promastigotes and amastigotes
Cellular Immunology, 1985In vitro bioassays were used to compare T-cell responses induced by the intramacrophage amastigote stage and the sandfly-borne promastigote stage of Leishmania tropica. Lymph node cells from mice immunized with sonicated promastigotes or amastigotes incorporated in Freund's complete adjuvant were assayed for their ability to proliferate and to release ...
