The leishmaniasis is a complex of diseases caused by protozoa of the Leishmania genus, which includes several species responsible for different disease clinical forms. The visceral leishmaniasis is a systemic, chronic and potentially fatal disease caused by Leishmania infantum, endemic in Brazil. The Th1 response is classically associated with protection, furthermore, recent data also sug…
Leishmania infantum chagasi (Lic) is the etiologic agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Brazil. While Regulatory T cells (Treg) have been associated with suppression of effector cells, favoring the survival of parasite, Th17 is related with the protection against L. donovani infection in humans. However, both cellular participations in rodent models are unknown. Thus, our aim is to inv…
The visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a systemic, chronic and potentially fatal disease caused by Leishmania infantum, endemic in Brazil. The Th1 and Th17 immune response profiles are classically associated with protection against the disease. To cope with such intracellular residing pathogens, the host has evolved sophisticated detection systems. The activation of members of the nucleotide-…
