IL‐12 and IFN‐γ in Response to Leishmania Infantum Antigens in Felines From an Endemic Area for Visceral Leishmaniasis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis is a potentially fatal zoonosis with an increasing incidence. Most infected felines present the disease in its subclinical form and demonstrate greater resistance to parasitemia than dogs. However, the role of cellular immunity in felines is still poorly understood. This study measured serum levels of interleukin (IL)‐12

Relationships of new world Phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) based on fossil evidence
The fossil record and systematics of phlebotomid sand flies, vectors of leishmaniasis and arbovirus in several regions of the world, strongly support that living genera existed long before the Oligocene (38 million years, myr).

Phlébotomes de Bolivie : description de Lutzomyia vattierae n. sp. et de la femelle de L. antezanai Le Pont, Dujardin et Desjeux, 1989 (Diptera, Psychodidae) [PDF]
Summary. — Both sexes of Lutzomyia vattierae n. sp. are described. The males, without setal tuft on the coxite, are closely related to those of Lutzomyia nordestina Mangabeira, but the females are quite different.

Phylogeography of the Lutzomyia gomezi (Diptera: Phlebotominae) on the Panama Isthmus [PDF]
Lutzomyia gomezi (Nitzulescu, 1931) is one of the main Leishmania (Vianna) panamensis vectors in Panama, and despite its medical significance, there are no population genetic studies regarding this species. In this study, we used the sequences of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome b/start of NADH1 and the nuclear elongation gene α-1 in order to analyze ...

Six Phlebotominae sand fly species are incriminated as biological vectors of human pathogens in Panama, but molecular corroboration is still needed. We aim at confirming the identity of Phlebotominae species documented as anthropophilic in Panama.
