[ 1 ] - Presence of Immunoglobulins on the Surface of Lesion-Derived Amastigotes of Leishmania major As a Tool for Isolation of Amastigote Stage from BALB/c Mice
The onset of infections by Leishmania parasites mainly caused by amastigote growth inside the macrophages. One of the important properties of lesion-derived amastigote is thought to be the attachment of various host proteins including immunoglobulins on the surface of amastigote. In this study, the presence of immunoglobulins on the surface of lesion-derived amastigotes was detected by Western ...
[ 2 ] - Characterization of Leishmania Species and L. major Strains in Different Endemic Areas of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in Iran
Both zoonotic and anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) caused by L. major and L. tropica, respectively, are endemic in different parts of Iran. This study was performed to investigate the new changes in epidemiological pattern of CL, and to identify the species of Leishmania and the strains of L. major isolated from different endemic areas of Iran. Seventy-two isolates from 245 samples co...
[ 3 ] - Induction of Th1 Cytokines by Live Logarithmic Promastigotes of L. major
The early cytokines production in response to live logarithmic and stationary phase promastigotes of Leishmania major was examined on the peripheral blood cells of the healthy individuals. Whole blood cultures were stimulated by either logarithmic or stationary phase promastigotes. IFN- and IL-10 productions were assessed by specific sandwich ELISA. The results showed that the logarithmic prom...
