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

open access: yesTransboundary 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

open access: yesVeterinary 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.

Macrophage Polarization in the Skin Lesion Caused by Neotropical Species of Leishmania sp

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Macrophages play important roles in the innate and acquired immune responses against Leishmania parasites. Depending on the subset and activation status, macrophages may eliminate intracellular parasites; however, these host cells also can offer a safe environment for Leishmania replication.
