Recombinant LPG3 Protein From Leishmania chagasi as an Antigen for the Diagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 8, Page 1057-1065, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Synthesis, Electrochemistry, In Vitro Antiprotozoal Efficacy and Mechanistic Study of Novel ‘Ferrantoin’ and Related Derivatives

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
1,2‐Disubstituted ferrocene analogues bearing hydantoin or rhodanine synthons were synthesised and assessed for antitrypanosomatid activity. An antileishmanial early lead, analogue 23, acting through ROS generation and hence oxidative stress, was uncovered.

Ruminants Epidemiology, Spatial Clustering and Multivariate Risk Modelling of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in District Bajaur, Pakistan

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study investigated the epidemiology, risk factors and spatial distribution of cutaneous leishmaniasis in District Bajaur, Pakistan. Higher prevalence was observed among young males during summer, with lesions mainly on exposed body parts. Spatial analysis identified Khar, Loe Mamund and Salarzai as hotspots, highlighting the need for targeted ...

A novel phlebovirus in Albanian sandflies [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011
Sandflies were collected in two districts of Albania and tested for a probable phlebovirus infection. A novel phlebovirus, provisionally named Adria virus, was detected in 2/12 pools, both trapped in a region close to the Adriatic Sea. The new virus is genetically closer (similarity 77.1% at nucleotide level) to Arbia virus, which belongs to the ...
