Plasticity of gp63 gene organization in Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana
(Cambridge University Press, 1995)
The genomic organization of gp63 genes in 4 and 7 isolates of Leishmania braziliensis and L. peruviana, respectively was studied by RFLP analysis with 3 restriction enzymes (Bgl I, Sal I and Apa I). Our results showed a ...
Comparative zymographic analysis of metallopeptidase of Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana and Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis isolates from Peru
(Elsevier, 2012)
American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL) in Peru is mainly associated with Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana and L. (V.) braziliensis. These parasites are genetically related, and their characterization as distinct species ...
Application of crispr/cas9-based reverse genetics in leishmania braziliensis: Conserved roles for hsp100 and hsp23
(MDPI, 2020)
The protozoan parasite Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis (L. braziliensis) is the main cause of human tegumentary leishmaniasis in the New World, a disease affecting the skin and/or mucosal tissues. Despite its importance, ...
Comparative genomic analysis of Leishmania (Viannia) peruviana and Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis
(BioMed Central, 2015)
BACKGROUND: The Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis complex is responsible for most cases of New World tegumentary leishmaniasis. This complex includes two closely related species but with different geographic distribution ...
Virulence factor RNA transcript expression in the Leishmania Viannia subgenus: Influence of species, isolate source, and Leishmania RNA virus-1
(Springer, 2019)
Background: Leishmania RNA virus-1 (LRV1) is a double-stranded RNA virus identified in 20-25% of Viannia - species endemic to Latin America, and is believed to accelerate cutaneous to mucosal leishmaniasis over time. Our ...
Karyotype Plasticity in Neotropical Leishmanicr. An Index for Measuring Genomic Distance Among L. (V.) Peruviana and L. (V.) Braziliensis Populations
(Cambridge University Press, 1995)
A method for phenetic analysis of karyotype data has been developed for Leishmania populations. Measurement of size difference between chromosomes recognized by a given DNA probe in different isolates led to the formulation ...
Simultaneous infection with Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and L (V ) lainsoni in a Peruvian patient with cutaneous leishmaniasis
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2013)
Conventional understanding suggests that simultaneous infection with more than one species ofLeishmaniais unlikely. In Peru, co-infections are clinically relevant because causative species dictates prognosis, treatment ...
Association of the Endobiont Double-Stranded RNA Virus LRV1 With Treatment Failure for Human Leishmaniasis Caused by Leishmania braziliensis in Peru and Bolivia
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
Cutaneous and mucosal leishmaniasis, caused in South America by Leishmania braziliensis, is difficult to cure by chemotherapy (primarily pentavalent antimonials [Sb(V)]). Treatment failure does not correlate well with ...
From population to genome: Ecogenetics of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and L (V) peruviana
(Taylor and Francis, 1995)
The size polymorphism of nine chromosomes, recognized by specific probes, was analysed in populations of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and L. (V.) peruviana from various Peruvian biogeographical units. Interpretation ...
