Macrophages are the main target cells of parasites of the genus Leishmania, the causative agent of leishmaniasis. These parasites evade the microbicidal responses of macrophages to survive intracellularly. Several studies show that L. amazonensis amastigotes modulate immune-regulatory molecules, such as the surface ligand CD200 and its receptor (CD200R), a host inhibitory complex that par…
Leishmaniasis, a complex parasitic disease caused by protozoa of Leishmania, involves a complex interaction between the parasite and the host immune system. Macrophages, as effector cells of innate immunity, play a central role in acting as hosts for the parasite and modulating the immune response. Phenotypic heterogeneity of macrophages, characterized by polarization towards M1 (proinfla…
