Patchy Parasitized Skin Governs Leishmania donovani Transmission to Sand Flies.

Shaden Kamhawi1, Tiago D Serafim2.   

Abstract

Doehl et al. have combined empirical data with computer simulation to demonstrate that RAG-2 mice intravenously infected with Leishmania donovani form heterogeneous skin parasite patches that govern infectiousness to sand flies. This model provides a much-needed tool to explore the relevance of asymptomatic and symptomatic visceral leishmaniasis patients as infection reservoirs. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
