Functional genomics in sand fly-derived Leishmania promastigotes.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019 BackgroundLeishmania development in the sand fly gut leads to highly infective forms called metacyclic promastigotes. This process can be routinely mimicked in culture.

Sand-fly saliva-Leishmania-man: the trigger trio [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2013 Leishmaniases are worldwide diseases transmitted to the vertebrate host by the bite of an infected sand fly. Sand fly biting and parasite inoculation are accompanied by the injection of salivary molecules, whose immunomodulatory properties are actively ...

The immune response to sand fly salivary proteins and its influence on Leishmania immunity
Frontiers in Immunology, 2012 Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne disease transmitted by bites of phlebotomine sand flies. During Leishmania transmission, sand fly saliva is co-inoculated with parasites into the skin of the mammalian host.

Sand fly behavior: much more than weak-flying [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2021 Leishmaniases are diseases transmitted by some species of sand flies and are widely distributed throughout the tropical regions of the planet. Despite the low mobility of these vectors, the geographical distributions of some species are quite extensive, which hinders control and surveillance measures in endemic areas.The present study investigated the ...

Leishmania, microbiota and sand fly immunity [PDF]
Parasitology, 2018 AbstractIn this review, we explore the state-of-the-art of sand fly relationships with microbiota, viruses andLeishmania, with particular emphasis on the vector immune responses. Insect-borne diseases are a major public health problem in the world. Phlebotomine sand flies are proven vectors of several aetiological agents including viruses, bacteria and
