Leishmaniases, diseases caused by several species of Leishmania, are endemic in more than 90 countries and have annual incidences superior to 1 million cases, affecting mainly socioeconomically vulnerable populations. Symptomatic infections may result in cutaneous, mucocutaneous or visceral clinical forms. In Brazil, the most common dermotropic species are L. (V.) braziliensis, L. (L.) am…
Leishmaniasis, a group of diseases caused by parasites of the genus Leishmania, is endemic in 98 countries and has an estimated annual incidence of more than 1 million cases. The symptomatic infection has several clinical forms, which are divided into cutaneous, mucocutaneous and visceral. In Brazil, three dermotropic species are predominant, L. (V.) braziliensis, L. (L.) amazonensis, and…
Leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania that may be classified in tegumentary (TL) or visceral (VL) forms. In humans and other vertebrate hosts, Leishmania preferentially infects macrophages. Many factors affect the form and severity of the disease, mainly the species of Leishmania and the host immune response. CD100 (Sema 4D) is a glycoprotein of th…
Leishmania ssp. are protozoan parasites responsible for a complex of diseases known as leishmaniasis. The parasite has two main forms: promastigote flagellated in the insect digestive tract, and amastigote inside macrophages of the vertebrate host. Survival and multiplication inside these macrophages are guaranteed by evasion mechanisms based on parasite virulence factors. Proteome analys…

Leishmaniases are a group of neglected diseases endemic in 97 countries, with an annual incidence of approximately 1.5 million cases for the cutaneous form and 300,000 for the visceral form. In Brazil, they represent a serious public health issue, with current therapies often being ineffective, toxic, and difficult to administer, highlighting the need for the identification of new therape…
Leishmaniasis is a complex of diseases caused by parasites of the genus Leishmania, endemic in 98 countries and responsible for more than 1 million cases every year. The human symptomatic infection has different clinical forms, which are grouped into tegumentary/cutaneous and visceral. The parasite is transmitted to man (and other vertebrates) by insect vectors, in which it remains in the…
Leishmania spp. are protozoan parasites that cause leishmaniasis, an endemic disease in more than 98 countries, responsible for more than 1 million new cases every year. The infection can manifest itself in several clinical forms in man, which can be grouped in tegumentary/cutaneous or visceral. The parasite is transmitted to hosts by the bite of female phlebotomine insects. During its li…
Leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania that may be classified in tegumentary (TL) or visceral (VL) forms. In humans and other vertebrate hosts, Leishmania preferentially infects macrophages.

Leishmania ssp. are protozoan parasites responsible for a complex of diseases known as leishmaniasis. Present two main developmental forms: a flagellated promastigotes in the alimentary tract of the insect vector, and the amastigote no external flagellum, within cells of the mononuclear phagocytic system, preferably macrophages of the vertebrate host. The ability for survival and multipli…
