Investigation of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis Infection in Wild Mammals in Brazil

Acta Parasitologica, 2022
Leishmaniasis are infectious and zoonotic diseases and present in cutaneous and visceral forms. Cutaneous leishmaniasis is endemic and widely distributed throughout the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil. Several cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis in humans and dogs associated with Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis have been reported in the state.

Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis replicates in mouse bone marrow

Acta Tropica, 2022
Leishmaniasis is a neglected disease caused by species of the protozoan Leishmania. Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis causes the cutaneous and mucocutaneous forms of the disease. Experimental cutaneous infection of mice is one of the most important preclinical research models of leishmaniasis.

Dissemination of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1996
Destructive human mucocutaneous leishmaniasis may appear many years after the primary cutaneous infection with Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis. Hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) were infected with metacyclic L. braziliensis promastigotes. It was found that secondary metastatic visceral lesions could arise from a primary cutaneous lesion, or secondary ...

Biochemical characterization of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana by isoenzyme electrophoresis

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1990
Leishmanial organisms isolated from 24 patients with Andean cutaneous leishmaniasis (uta) and from 7 with sylvatic leishmaniasis in both cutaneous and mucosal forms were characterized on the basis of their isoenzyme profiles for 13 enzymes using both cellulose acetate (CA) and thin-layer starch gel (TLS) electrophoretic techniques. Malate dehydrogenase

In vitro promastigote fitness of putative Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis/Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana hybrids

Acta Tropica, 1999
In order to initiate studies on the phenotypic properties of hybrids vs. their putative parents, the in vitro growth behaviour of promastigotes was compared for 15 stocks characterised as Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis, Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana and putative hybrids (isolated from the Eastern Andean valley of Huanuco, Peru).

Cysteine proteinases from promastigotes of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis

Parasitology Research, 2009
Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis is the major causative agent of American tegumentary leishmaniasis, a disease that has a wide geographical distribution and is a severe public health problem. The cysteine proteinase B (CPB) from Leishmania spp. represents an important virulence factor. In this study, we characterized and localized cysteine proteinases

Leishmanicidal activity of synthetic chalcones in Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis

Experimental Parasitology, 2014
The treatment of American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) is based on a small group of compounds that were developed decades ago, all of which are highly toxic and have a high rate of treatment failure. The chalcones show leishmanicidal activity, yet few studies have evaluated this activity against Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis, one of the most ...
