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 ...

The Sensory Ecology of Tsetse Flies: Neuroscience Perspectives on a Disease Vector

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 2, January 2026.
Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are important disease vectors that feed on vertebrate blood. Host‐seeking depends on a combination of sensory systems, from long‐range senses like olfaction and vision, to shorter‐range senses such as audition, mechanosensation, thermosensation and taste.

Proteophosophoglycans regurgitated by Leishmania-infected sand flies target the L-arginine metabolism of host macrophages to promote parasite survival [PDF]

, 2009
All natural Leishmania infections start in the skin; however, little is known of the contribution made by the sand fly vector to the earliest events in mammalian infection, especially in inflamed skin that can rapidly kill invading parasites.

Development of Leishmania mexicana in Lutzomyia longipalpis in the absence of sugar feeding [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2019
The leishmaniases are caused by Leishmania parasites and transmitted through the bites of phlebotomine sand flies. During parasite development inside the vector's midgut, promastigotes move towards the stomodeal valve, a mechanism that is crucial for transmission.

Leishmaniasis Transmission Risk at the Forest‐Peridomestic Interface in an Area of Southern Sinaloa, Mexico: Entomological, Molecular, and Climatic Evidence

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania spp. and transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies, affects almost 1,000,000 people annually across more than 90 countries. In Mexico, growing evidence of locally acquired transmission in northwestern states makes ecoepidemiological work increasingly urgent.
