Seroprevalence of canine visceral leishmaniasis in asymptomatic dogs in Iran
Clinically infected dogs have been identified as the main reservoir hosts of visceral leishmaniasis (VL)caused by Leishmania infantum. Recently asymptomatic infected dogs were regarded to be as important asclinically ill dogs. This study was aimed to determine the seroprevalence of L. infantum infection amongasymptomatic dogs in the southwest and central parts of Iran and to investigate possibl...
متن کاملHaematological Parameters In Visceral Leishmaniasis
Context: Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) is a chronic infectious disease caused by parasites of the Leishmania donovani complex, also known as Kala Azar. It is an endemic disease in the Indian subcontinent, mainly seen in the states of Bihar and West Bengal. VL can cause a variety of haematological disorders like anaemia, leucopenia, thrombocytopenia and pancytopenia. Myelofibrosis, Myelodysplasia ...
متن کاملTissue cytokine responses in canine visceral leishmaniasis.
To elucidate the local tissue cytokine response of dogs infected with Leishmania chagasi, cytokine mRNA levels were measured in bone marrow aspirates from 27 naturally infected dogs from Brazil and were compared with those from 5 uninfected control animals. Interferon-gamma mRNA accumulation was enhanced in infected dogs and was positively correlated with humoral (IgG1) but not with lymphoproli...
متن کاملInterstitial pneumonitis in canine visceral leishmaniasis.
Forty-one naturally infected dogs with visceral leishmaniasis from an urban area of Corumbá (Mato Grosso do Sul-BRAZIL) were studied and three types of lung involvement due to visceral leishmaniasis were characterized; a cellular, a cellular-fibrotic and a fibrotic type. These types seem to represent a sequential evolutive proce'as. Visceral leishmaniasis frequently causes an interstitial pneu ...
متن کاملSplenic immune responses during canine visceral leishmaniasis.
Dogs are the main reservoir host for zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania infantum. In this study we investigated the immune response in spleens of L. infantum-infected dogs by measuring the mRNA expression levels for a wide panel of cytokines, transcription factors and chemokines. mRNA levels and parasite load were followed during 7 months of experimental infection and 14 month...
