The retained capacity of Lutzomya longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva) to transmit Leishmania chagasi (Cunha & Chagas) after eight years (64 generations in a closed laboratory colony

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1985
A closed Lutzomyia longipalpis colony, from Ceará has been used to transmit Leishmania chagasi isolated from a fox in Pará state. The last time this colony was successfully used in similar transmission experiments was eight years (64 generations) ago ...

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1495-1523, October 2025.
The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

Lutzomyia longipalpisPeritrophic Matrix: Formation, Structure, and Chemical Composition [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2005
Sandflies are vectors of several pathogens, constituting serious health problems. Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912) is the main vector of Leishmania chagasi, agent of visceral leishmaniasis. They synthesize a thick bag-like structure that surrounds the bloodmeal, named peritrophic matrix (PM).

Neuroimmune Pain and Its Manipulation by Pathogens

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Recent studies highlight extensive crosstalk that exists between sensory neurons responsible for pain and the immune system. Cutaneous pain neurons detect harmful microbes, recruit immune cells, and produce anticipatory immunity in nearby tissues. These complementary systems generally protect hosts from infections.

Visceral Leishmaniasis in Bolivia: Current Status

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2020
INTRODUCTION In Bolivia, before 1982 there were no records of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) cases that would allow us to review and describe the temporospatial occurrence of VL by ecoregions in provinces and departments of Bolivia to evaluate its impact ...

How Effective Are the Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis Vaccines Currently Being Tested in Dogs? A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Parasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is a zoonotic disease of great worldwide importance and can be prevented by vaccinating seronegative dogs. The objective of the present systematic review and meta‐analysis is to verify the efficacy rate of vaccines tested in dogs against CVL or L. infantum infection. We used PRISMA guidelines for this review
