Tegumentary leishmaniasis by Leishmania braziliensis complex in Cochabamba, Bolivia including the presence of L. braziliensis outlier

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 2242-2255, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Leishmaniasis is caused by protozoans of the Leishmania genus, which includes more than 20 species capable of infecting humans worldwide. In the Americas, the most widespread specie is L. braziliensis, present in 18 countries including Bolivia. The taxonomic position of the L. braziliensis complex has been a subject of controversy, complicated

Autochthonous and imported tegumentary leishmaniasis in Catalonia (Spain): Aetiological evolution in the last four decades and usefulness of different typing approaches based on biochemical, molecular and proteomic markers

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 3, Page 1404-1418, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Leishmaniasis is a transmissible disease caused by Leishmania protozoa. Spain is endemic for both visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis, the autochthonous aetiological agent being Leishmania infantum. Around the world, the L. donovani complex is associated with visceral symptoms, while any species of the Leishmania or Viannia subgenera ...

Equine infection with Leishmania spp. in Costa Rica: Study of five cases

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 7, Issue 6, Page 2234-2239, November 2021., 2021
The present report describes 5 cases of equine cutaneous leishmaniosis in Costa Rica using histopathology, immunohistochemistry and qPCR. Our results emphasise the importance of Leishmania spp. not only as a causative agent of equine cutaneous disease in the New World but also as a possible emerging pathogen.

Genome Analysis of Triploid Hybrid Leishmania Parasite from the Neotropics

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We discovered a hybrid Leishmania parasite in Costa Rica that is genetically similar to hybrids from Panama. Genome analyses demonstrated the hybrid is triploid and identified L. braziliensis and L. guyanensis–related strains as parents.

Comparative study of parasitological techniques for demonstration of amastigotes and primary isolation of promastigotes in American Cutaneous leishmaniasis [PDF]

, 2002
FUNDAMENTOS: O PCR tem alta sensibilidade no diagnóstico da LTA, mas é caro e distante da prática. A cultura e o esfregaço são práticos, mas pouco sensíveis.

Plasticity of gp63 gene organization in Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana

Parasitology, 1995
SUMMARYThe genomic organization of gp63 genes in 4 and 7 isolates of Leishmania braziliensis and L. peruviana, respectively was studied by RFLP analysis with 3 restriction enzymes (Bgl I, Sal I and Apa I). Our results showed a marked polymorphism among isolates. Some characters were specific to L. braziliensis or to L. peruviana, and others specific to
