Multiplication of a human parasite (Leishmania donovani) in phagolysosomes of hamster macrophages in vitro.

K P Chang, D M Dwyer.   

Abstract

Leishmania donovani, the etiological agent of human visceral leishmaniasis, was grown in hamster peritoneal macrophages in vitro. By electron microscopy, using a lysosomal marker, these parasitic protozoa were seen to multiply within host cell phagolysosomes. The survival mechanism of this intracellular parasite is based apparently upon resistance to macrophage lysosomal enzymic digestion.
