Skin resident memory cells generated by the <i>L. major</i> centrin gene deleted parasites mediate protective immune response analogous to leishmanization
2021-12-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne parasitic disease transmitted through the bite of a sand fly with no available vaccine for humans. Recently, we have developed a live attenuated Leishmania major centrin gene deleted parasite strain ( LmCen -/- ) that induced protection against a homologous and heterologous challenges. The protection is mediated by IFNγ secreting CD4 + T effector cells and mult...
