Leishmania tropica: Another Etiological Agent of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis in Iran. [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2007
Background: Dogs have been previously reported to be reservoirs of Leishmania infantum as the etiological agent of human visceral leishmaniasis in Iran. We report a case of canine visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by L.

Leishmania tropica Infection in Golden Jackals and Red Foxes, Israel

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
During a survey of wild canids, internal transcribed spacer 1 real-time PCR and high-resolution melt analysis identified Leishmania tropica in samples from jackals and foxes. Infection was most prevalent in ear and spleen samples.

Comparative gene expression pattern of immune-related genes using dual-color RT-MLPA in the lesions of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by L. major and L. tropica.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is the most prevalent type of leishmaniasis disease and causes skin lesions, mainly ulcers, on exposed parts of the body. The Americas, Mediterranean basin, Middle East, and Central Asia account for approximately 95% of all ...

Comparison of Cysteine Protease B Gene Expression between Clinical Isolates of Leishmania tropica, Leishmania major and Leishmania infantum

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2019
Introduction: Leishmania cysteine protease B (CPB) is a parasite virulence factor that plays a vital role in host-parasitic interactions. Regarding the importance of the CPB gene, we used a quantitative real-time RT-PCR to investigate the expression of ...

"DIFERENTIAION OF LEISHMANIA TROPICA MAJOR FROM LEISHMANIA TROPICA MINOR BY INOCULATION TO LABORATORY ANIMALS "

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 1973
The subcutaneous inoculation of 16 white mice and 10 golden hamsters with L.tropica major resulted in the development of leishmanial lesions in all, becoming generalized in some.Two of 10 hamsters inoculated intraperitoneally with this parasite developed generalized lesions. On the other hand, the inoculation of L.

Mapping the Genes for Susceptibility and Response to Leishmania tropica in Mouse

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
L. tropica can cause both cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis in humans. Although the L. tropica-induced cutaneous disease has been long known, its potential to visceralize in humans was recognized only recently. As nothing is known about the genetics of host responses to this infection and their clinical impact, we developed an informative animal ...
