| A study investigating genetic mechanisms underlying resistance to leishmaniasis |
The parasite belonging to Leishmania genus presents two main morphological forms during the life cycle. The promastigotes forms are extracellular, elongated and flagellated cells that proliferate in the digestive tract from the invertebrate host. The amastigotes forms are intracellular with non-apparent flagellum that proliferate in the mononuclear phagocytic system, being the macrophage …
Leishmania is a protozoan parasite that alternates its life cycle between the sand fly and the mammalian hosts. This alternation involves environmental changes and submits the parasite to dynamic modifications in morphology, metabolism, cellular signaling and gene expression regulation to allow a rapid adaptation to new conditions. Our research group have been studying the role of arginas…
