Leishmania tarentolae: A new frontier in the epidemiology and control of the leishmaniases

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e1326-e1337, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Leishmaniasis (or the leishmaniases), classified as a neglected tropical parasitic disease, is found in parts of the tropics, subtropics and southern Europe. Leishmania parasites are transmitted by the bite of phlebotomine sand flies and million cases of human infection occur annually.

Ecology of Lutzomyia longipalpis and Lutzomyia migonei in an endemic area for visceral leishmaniasis [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2014
The main vector for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Brazil is Lutzomyia longipalpis. However, the absence of L. longipalpis in a region of autochthonous VL demonstrates the participation of other species in the transmission of the parasite. Studies conducted in La Banda, Argentina, and São Vicente Férrer, Pernambuco State, Brazil, have correlated the ...

First‐in‐human development of a pharmacodynamic biomarker for PAC1 receptor antagonists using intradermal injections of maxadilan

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 15, Issue 8, Page 1968-1977, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Maxadilan, a potent vasodilator peptide, selectively activates the PAC1 receptor, a promising target for migraine therapy. Therefore, maxadilan has been suggested as a tool to study the pharmacodynamics (PDs) of PAC1 receptor antagonists. The objectives of this first‐in‐human study were to: (1) determine the safety, tolerability, dose response,
