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

open access: yesParasite 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

Performance of Extracellular Vesicles From Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum for Serological Diagnosis of Human and Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a zoonotic disease in which dogs are the main reservoirs. Until now, the serological tests do not present satisfactory sensitivity for diagnosis of these hosts. One of the functions of extracellular vesicles (EVs) is related to immunological host response.

The RNA interference response to alphanodavirus replication in Phlebotomus papatasi sand fly cells

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 687-696, December 2024.
Both the siRNA and piRNA pathways are transcriptionally active in Phlebotomus papatasi PP9ad cells. Assembly of small RNA sequencing identifies an adventitious nodavirus (American nodavirus [ANV]) in PP9ad cells. ANV is actively replicating in PP9ad cells and is targeted by the exo‐siRNA pathway but not the piRNA pathway.

Ecological determinants of leishmaniasis vector, Lutzomyia spp.: A scoping review

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 393-406, December 2024.
Lutzomyia spp. survival is impacted by climatic, habitat and geodemographic factors. Lutzomyia spp. have demonstrated a wide range of temperature tolerance, ranging from 11 to 30°C. There is limited research on this topic, posing a significant challenge for future studies. Abstract Leishmania spp. are zoonotic parasites transmitted by phlebotomine sand

The complexities of blood‐feeding patterns in mosquitoes and sandflies and the burden of disease: A minireview

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 5, September 2024.
Mosquitoes and phlebotomine sandflies are infectious disease vectors through hematophagy. The development of hematophagy likely provided an evolutionary advantage, offering a rich nutrient source for reproduction. These insects exhibit diverse blood‐feeding patterns, from invertebrates to various vertebrates. Multiple sensory cues to guide host‐seeking

Visceral Leishmaniasis in Bolivia: Current Status

open access: yesRevista 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 ...

Fatty acids derived from oviposition systems guide female black soldier flies (Hermetia illucens) toward egg deposition sites

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 1231-1248, August 2024.
While the polyphagous larvae of the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) are gaining interest as an alternative protein source for food and feed, little research has been done on the behavior of the adults. We identified three fatty acids and one fatty acid methyl ester derived from old oviposition sites and aimed to elucidate their effect on ...
