Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 178, Issue 3, Page 377-386, July 2026.
Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...

An Unusual Presentation of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in a Patient with Substance Use: A Diagnostic and Management Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In patients with atypical ulcers and travel history to endemic areas, a comprehensive diagnostic workup for cutaneous leishmaniasis is imperative. This case confirms Leishmania tropica through combined microscopy, culture, and PCR, leading to successful treatment with systemic glucantime and adjunctive wound care.

Structural basis of secreted acid phosphatase polymerization in the Leishmania parasite

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Enzymes that assemble into filaments typically transition between protomeric and polymeric states in response to cellular conditions. In contrast, the secreted acid phosphatase (SAP) of Leishmania, one of the most abundant extracellular glycoproteins produced by the parasite and regarded as a major virulence factor in the neglected tropical ...

Multiple hybrid genotypes of Leishmania (viannia) in a focus of mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The principal agent of mucocutaneous leishmaniasis (MCL) is the South American protozoan parasite Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis. This organism is generally considered to be clonal, that is, it does not to undergo genetic exchange.

In Vitro Evaluation of Antileishmanial Activity of Commiphora myrrha Essential Oil Nanoliposome

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study investigates the efficacy of nanoliposomal formulations containing myrrh essential oil in combating Leishmania protozoa in laboratory settings. Myrrh essential oil and nanoliposomes were prepared in RPMI‐1640 medium at concentrations of 1, 2, 5 and 10 µg/dL.

Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesChemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...
