Leishmaniases are neglected tropical diseases caused by Leishmania parasites and transmitted by infected phlebotomine sand flies, and they remain a major public health challenge in Morocco. The burden is dominated by cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) and visceral leishmaniasis (VL), mainly associated with Leishmania major, Leishmania tropica, and L ...

The P2X7 Receptor and Its Relation to Neglected Tropical Diseases: Focusing on Chagas Disease
Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a neglected tropical disease (NTD) that can lead to severe cardiac complications, including chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy. While NTDs are caused by a variety of pathogens—such as protozoa, bacteria, viruses, and helminths, Chagas disease remains underexplored, particularly regarding host immune responses.
