Semi-quantitative analysis of cytokine expression in asymptomatic canine leishmaniasis.
TL;DR: The present work describes the cytokine expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from asymptomatic dogs experimentally infected with L. infantum that present a cellular protective immune response and In vitro stimulation of PBMC with soluble leishmanial antigen (SLA) promoted the expression of IL-2, IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IL-18, Il-4, IL -6 and IL-10 mRNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
The immune response and PBMC subsets in canine visceral leishmaniasis before, and after, chemotherapy

TL;DR: Peripheral blood mononuclear cell subsets, in vitro lymphoproliferative response to leishmanial antigen, and Leishmania-specific serum antibody levels were examined in 11 dogs, naturally infected with L. infantum, and 9 healthy control dogs and levels returned to those observed during CVL.
Journal ArticleDOI
HIV-Leishmania infantum co-infection: humoral and cellular immune responses to the parasite after chemotherapy
TL;DR: The inability of antibody response to control the parasite and the absence of specific T-cell immunity to Leishmania sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Semi-quantitative analysis of multiple cytokines in canine peripheral blood mononuclear cells by a single tube RT-PCR
TL;DR: The results obtained show that the method of monitoring the mRNA cytokine expression might be an useful tool for understanding the immune response in dogs and is easy to use and reproducible.
