Arginase activity - a marker of disease status in patients with visceral leishmaniasis in ethiopia. [PDF]

, 2013
The underlying mechanisms resulting in the profound immune suppression characteristic of human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) are not fully understood. Here, we tested the hypothesis that arginase, an enzyme associated with immunosuppression, is higher in ...

Synthesis and Antiparasitic Activities of New Organometallic Derivatives of the Benzimidazole Anthelmintic Drugs

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Organometallic derivatization of existing drugs is a common strategy to look for new drug candidates. This work describes the derivatization of the benzimidazole anthelmintic scaffold, from the synthesis of the organometallic derivatives to the evaluation of their biological properties. It highlights a broad range of antiparasitic activities and leaves

HetCA/STOCSY‐Guided Dereplication of Artemisia arborescens Reveals Furofuran Lignans with Antileishmanial Effects

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Bioactive metabolites can remain hidden in negligible activity extracts. A statistical spectroscopy–driven dereplication workflow integrating the HeteroCovariance Approach (HetCA) and Statistical Total Correlation Spectroscopy (STOCSY) prioritized furofuran lignans in Artemisia arborescens, identifying three compounds with moderate antileishmanial ...

Visceral leishmaniasis: current status of control, diagnosis, and treatment, and a proposed research and development agenda.

, 2002
Visceral leishmaniasis is common in less developed countries, with an estimated 500000 new cases each year. Because of the diversity of epidemiological situations, no single diagnosis, treatment, or control will be suitable for all.

Causes of Pediatric Visceral Leishmaniasis in Southeastern Iran

Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2014
Leishmania infantum is the most frequent cause of visceral leishmaniasis and L. tropica has been rarely linked to the disease in Iran. In this study, bone marrow aspirates were collected from 10 child patients, suspected with visceral leishmaniasis ...

Leptin enhances the efficacy of glucantime to modulate macrophage polarization toward the M1 phenotype in Leishmania tropica-infected macrophages

Parasites & Vectors
Background Macrophages are essential immune cells during Leishmania infection, as their polarization toward M1/M2 phenotypes determines disease outcome.
