Visceral leishmaniasis, caused by Leishmania infantum, has high morbidity and mortality. Despite the variety of drugs that are available for the treatment of leishmaniasis, most causes serious side effects and are resistant parasites. The immune response in animals and humans to control the infection depends on the development of Th1-type response. There are currently no vaccines availabl…
Visceral leishmaniasis (LV) is a serious parasitic disease caused by infection with Leishmania infantum or Leishmania donovani. LV distributed worldwide and the infection may be silent, have small clinical manifestations, severe or even lethal. Current therapy with antimonials or amphotericin is effective in most cases of VL. However, the disease maintains approximately 7% lethality in Br…
