An Overview of the Pathogenesis the Leishmaniasis: Investigation of Possible Viscerotropism Associated Genes of Viscerotropic<em> Leishmania tropica</em> Strains
2025-04-14
Abstract excerpt
Leishmania infantum is widely recognized as the primary causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Turkey, while Leishmania tropica predominantly causes cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL). Although L. tropica is capable of causing VL, such cases remain exceedingly rare. This study aimed to identify genetic factors underlying the visceralization potential of L. tropica by comparing isolates from VL and CL patients...
