Eco-epidemiological aspects, natural detection and molecular identification of Leishmania spp. in Lutzomyia reburra, Lutzomyia barrettoi majuscula and Lutzomyia trapidoi

Biomédica, 2017
Introducción. La provincia de Pichincha, Ecuador, es un área endémica de leishmaniasis cutánea, en donde se han determinado como vectores los flebotomíneos antropofílicos con infección natural por Leishmania spp. Sin embargo, no se ha evaluado el papel en la transmisión de las especies zoofílicas.Objetivo. Evaluar la infección natural por Leishmania en

An Unusual Presentation of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in a Patient with Substance Use: A Diagnostic and Management Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In patients with atypical ulcers and travel history to endemic areas, a comprehensive diagnostic workup for cutaneous leishmaniasis is imperative. This case confirms Leishmania tropica through combined microscopy, culture, and PCR, leading to successful treatment with systemic glucantime and adjunctive wound care.

Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...

Identification and mapping of potential and highly likely vectors for selected vector‐borne diseases in the EU and neighbouring countries

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This report addresses Term of Reference 1.2 by providing a comprehensive knowledge‐mapping of arthropod vector species competent to transmit selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) including VBDs listed under Regulation (EU) 2016/429 and Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as additional non‐listed pathogens with potential epidemiological relevance.

Leishmania chitinase facilitates colonization of sand fly vectors and enhances transmission to mice [PDF]

, 2008
Chitinases of trypanosomatid parasites have been proposed to fulfil various roles in their blood-feeding arthropod vectors but so far none have been directly tested using a molecular approach.

Transmission of cutaneous leishmaniasis by sand flies is enhanced by regurgitation of fPPG [PDF]

, 2004
Sand flies are the exclusive vectors of the protozoan parasite Leishmania, but the mechanism of transmission by fly bite has not been determined nor incorporated into experimental models of infection.
