Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) may be fatal if not treated and, although hypergammaglobulinemia is a hallmark of VL, the contribution of antibodies in progression of disease remains unknown. Effector and regulatory functions of antibodies rely on their interactions with type I and II Fc receptors and these interactions are tuned by the patterns of antibody Fc N-glycosylation. We recently sho…
While visceral leishmaniasis (VL) presents high mortality if left untreated, most infections with the agent of the disease, Leishmania infantum, remain asymptomatic. The risk factors for developing VL are still not well known. VL is prevalent in middle and low-income populations and is characterized by a "cytokine storm". Inflammation affects IgG Fc N-glycosylation profiles, which, in tur…
