The isolation of Leishmania (V.) lainsoni is recorded for the first time from a wild animal, the rodent Agouti paca (Rodentia: Dasyproctidae), from Pará State, north Brazil. Isolates of the parasite were made from apparently normal skin of 3 specimens of this rodent captured on the Island of Tocantins, in the municipality of Tucuruí, an area ...

The susceptibility of the monkey Cebus apella (Cebidae) to experimental infection by Leishmania (Viannia) lainsoni has been investigated. For this purpose, five young monkeys, 2 males and 3 females, were intradermally, inoculated, in eight different places along the dorsal surface of the tail with 3 x 10(6) promastigotes of the parasite (MHOM/BR/81 ...

Influence of Leishmania (Viannia) Species on the Response to Antimonial Treatment in Patients with American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis [PDF]
Background. Pentavalent antimonials (SbV) are the first-line chemotherapy for American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL). There are, however, reports of the occurrence of treatment failure with these drugs.

We have studied the histopathological aspects related to the evolution of cutaneous lesions experimentally produced in the monkey Cebus apella (Primates: Cebidae) by Leishmania (V.) lainsoni, L. (V.) braziliensis and L. (L.) amazonensis. Microscopical examination of a series of biopsies obtained from these animals showed the kinetics of the cutaneous ...
