Visceral leishmaniasis is a systemic infectious disease that can cause to a severe, potentially life-threatening chronic condition in humans. Risk factors for infection in urban areas have been associated with poor living conditions, the presence of sand fly vectors and infected pets. This study aimed to describe sand fly and canine infection in the neighborhoods of human visceral leishmaniasis occurrence in the city of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso State, central-western Brazil, reported between January 2005 and December 2006.

ABSTRACT A seminested PCR assay was developed in order to amplify the kinetoplast minicircle of Leishmania species from individual sand flies. The kinetoplast minicircle is an ideal target because it is present in 10,000 copies per cell and its sequence is known for most Leishmania species. The two-step PCR is carried out in a single tube using three primers, which were designed within the conserved area of the minicircle and contain conserved sequence blocks. The assay was able to detect as few as 3 parasites per individual sand fly and to amplify minicircle DNA from at least eightLeishmania

Multiple strategies involving the parasite-host-vector triad are necessary to control leishmaniasis. One option is to prevent or reduce transmission of the pathogen by the phlebotomine sand fly vectors. In this sense, it is essential to explore compounds that may influence the vectorial capacity of the insect and reduce its longevity. We investigated the effect of anti-Leishmania drugs administered via the sugar meal on longevity, blood feeding, oviposition, and parasite load on the third day of infection of the sand flies, to identify the most promising candidates for vector infection tests.

Abstract Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne disease transmitted by infected sand flies. During infection, sand fly salivary proteins are inoculated into the host dermis together with Leishmania parasites where proteins from the extracellular matrix are present. In this context, we hypothesize that sand fly salivary proteins interact with the parasite and with proteins from the extracellular matrix. Our preliminary findings show that proteins from sand fly salivary gland homogenate bind to the surface of promastigote forms of the parasite Leishmania infantum.

Abstract Humans have influenced the epidemiological patterns of American cutaneous leishmaniasis by habitat disturbance, which has led to the emergence of new transmission foci. In these transmission areas, detecting natural infection of sand fly species with Leishmania parasites is of prime importance in epidemiological studies. In this study, we examined the species composition, spatial distribution, seasonality, and natural infection with Leishmania of the sand fly fauna in an emergent leishmaniasis focus located in Colombia.

Background In Mali, cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) and filariasis are co-endemic. Previous studies in animal models of infection have shown that sand fly saliva enhance infectivity of Leishmania parasites in naïve hosts while saliva-specific adaptive immune responses may protect against cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis. In contrast, the human immune response to Phlebotomus duboscqi (Pd) saliva, the principal sand fly vector in Mali, was found to be dichotomously polarized with some individuals having a Th1-dominated response and others having a Th2-biased response.

Abstract The saliva of Phlebotomus papatasi, a sand fly vector for Leishmania major, contains a factor that exacerbates leishmaniasis and may be required for the establishment of infection with Leishmania in nature. We have examined the effect of sand fly saliva on various macrophage functions in vitro. Our data demonstrate that although saliva does not alter uptake of L. major by macrophages, it inhibits the ability of IFN-gamma to activate macrophages to kill the intracellular parasite. This inhibition of parasite killing is observed when both the promastigote and amastigote forms of the par

Mast cells (MCs) play a crucial role during Leishmania infections, which is transmitted through the bite of an infected sand fly that injects saliva together with the parasite. Sand fly saliva is a complex fluid that modulates the host immune response. In addition, hormonal factors modulate the host immune response and alter susceptibility to infections. Thus, to assess the impact of male sex hormones on the mast-cell (MC) response to Leishmania infections, we orchiectomized male mice, infected them with the parasite in the presence of sand fly salivary proteins, and analyzed the inflammatory
