Indian kala-azar caused by Leishmania tropica
The Lancet, 1995Kala-azar, or visceral leishmaniasis, in India is generally assumed to be a result of infection with Leishmania donovani. 15 parasite isolates collected over the past 10 years from patients with classical disease were typed by monoclonal antibodies, isoenzymes, and kDNA analysis.

Experimental Therapy of Mice Infected with Leishmania Tropica
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1979Abstract The therapeutic effect of sodium stibogluconate, amphotericin B, and metronidazole was studied in an experimental Leishmania tropica infection in outbred white mice inoculated 28, 14, or 0 days previously in the nose and foot pad. The pentavalent antimony and amphotericin were administered subcutaneously for 14 days at doses of 400 mg/kg body ...

Notes on the Biology of Leishmania Tropica
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine, 1923The study of protozoa cultivated in artificial media has contributed in relatively small measure to our knowledge of their biology. Notwithstanding the numerous efforts made in this direction only a few protozoa have been succcessfully grown in artificial cultures in laboratories, and in many cases it has been necessary to make repeated inoculations ...

Humoral antibody response in Leishmania tropica infection
Journal of Infection, 1992A small epidemic of Leishmania tropica infection was detected in Rajasthan, India. Most cases were in the 21-25 years age group and were possibly related to outdoor activity. Nearly one third of the patients had more than five lesions, the maximum number of lesions being confined to the face, neck and extremities.

Standardization and quality control of Leishmania tropica vaccine
Journal of Biological Standardization, 1974Abstract The production and properties of Leishmania tropica vaccine have been described. It has been pointed out that the use of this vaccine is not without inherent hazards and great care should be taken in its preparation. A set of requirements for the production and testing of the vaccine based on those of the Ministry of Health in Israel and ...

THE ULTRASTRUCTURE OF LEISHMANIA TROPICA IN SKIN LESIONS
Acta Pathologica Microbiologica Scandinavica Section B Microbiology, 1977The ultrastructure of the amastigote stage of Leishmania tropica has been studied. The present work reports on new observations on the fine structure of the basal body, prokinosome and flagellum. The basal body is composed of a centriole‐like structure and a transitional zone continuous with the proximal part of the flagellum.

Cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania tropica in Kenya
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 19879 leishmanial strains, isolated from cutaneous papulonodular lesions on 3 patients, were characterized by cellulose acetate electrophoresis using 7 enzymes. The patterns obtained were indistinguishable from those of a Leishmania tropica reference strain and these 9 strains were similar to L. tropica in failing to infect mice.

Intracellular protein degradation in Leishmania tropica promastigotes
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1983Abstract A labile class of proteins in the range of M r = 30 000–60 000 which turn over rapidly have been demonstrated in Leishmania tropica promastigotes. The rate of protein degradation is increased by exhaustion of nutrients or inhibition of energy metabolism.
