Anthropogenic movements result in modifications of the wild natural habitat, such as the destruction of forest areas, the introduction of domestic animals and the improvising of sanitation conditions. These changes, associated with global warming, can lead to the uncontrolled proliferation and dispersion of arthropod vectors of infectious diseases, such as Malaria, Chagas Disease, Leishma…
Leishmaniasis is a neglected infectious disease expanding in South America, including Brazil, caused by Leishmania parasites, from Kinetoplastida class and family Trypanosomatidae. There are more than 30 species of Leishmania and from these, 20 cause disease in humans worldwide. The transmission of the parasite occurs in dysphasic cycles by insect vectors of Psycodidae Family (sandflies),…
Leishmaniasis are zoonotic diseases caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania. In the Americas, visceral leishmaniasis (VL), the most severe form of the disease is caused by L. chagasi. According to the World Health Organization the VL is considered one of the world's seven highest-impact epidemics, affecting more than 68 countries and four continents, with a global incidence of around …
BackgroundTreatment effectiveness of Helicobacter pylori varies regionally and is decreasingworldwide, principally as a result of antibiotic resistant bacterium. Tetracycline is generallyincluded in second line H. pylori eradication regimens. In Brazil, a high level of tetracyclineresistance (TetR) is mainly associated with AGA926-928TTC 16 S rDNA nucleotidesubstitutions. As H. pylori cul…

Arboviruses are viral infections transmitted by arthropods (mosquitoes), caused by viruses of several genera, among them the Alphavirus, belonging to the family Togaviridae. Among the species of alphavirus that affect the countries of the American continent and which are of medical importance, we have: the Mayaro Fever virus, the Chikungunya Fever virus and the Equine Encephalitis virus. …
Leishmaniasis, caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania, forms a complex of anthropozoonotic diseases characterized by the interaction of parasites, invertebrate vectors, vertebrate hosts and reservoirs, with environmental, social and human factors. Infected dipteran insect females of Phlebotominae subfamily transmit the parasite to their vertebrate hosts, including humans and dogs, whi…
Leishmaniasis, a neglected infectious disease expanding in Brazil, caused by Leishmania species, Class Kinetoplasta and Family Trypanosomatidae, is transmitted by insects (sandfly - Lutzomyia) and affects humans, domestic dogs and wild animals. The clinical presentation of this disease depends on the species of the parasite and the host immune response, ranging from asymptomatic, cutaneou…
