An improved purification procedure for Leishmania RNA virus (LRV)
Leishmania RNA Virus (LRV, Totiviridae) infect Leishmania cells and subvert mice immune response, probably promoting parasite persistence, suggesting significant roles for LRV in host-parasite interaction. Here we describe a new LRV1-4 purification protocol, enabling capsid visualization by negatively stained electron microscopy representing a significant contribution to future LRV investigations.
متن کاملAn insight into the Leishmania RNA virus.
Leishmania RNA virus is an ancient virus that has coevolved with its protozoan host. The purpose of this article is to convey current understanding of Leishmania RNA virus as it has emerged over the past decade. The potential of the virus to play a role in modulating parasite virulence is also discussed.
متن کاملAn Improved Procedure for Metabolism
There are two general types of metabolism experiments: those of relatively short duration covering several periods, each from a few days to a week in length; and those carried out over as long a period as possible. As examples of the first type we have such investigations as the study of the effect of a given substance upon the nitrogenous equilibrium, or the study of the ability of the animal ...

متن کاملDetection of Leishmania RNA Virus in Leishmania Parasites
BACKGROUND Patients suffering from cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) caused by New World Leishmania (Viannia) species are at high risk of developing mucosal (ML) or disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis (DCL). After the formation of a primary skin lesion at the site of the bite by a Leishmania-infected sand fly, the infection can disseminate to form secondary lesions. This metastatic phenotype causes...
