Journal ArticleDOI

Deciphering the interplay between cysteine synthase and thiol cascade proteins in modulating Amphotericin B resistance and survival of Leishmania donovani under oxidative stress.

TL;DR: It is reported that over-expression of LdCS in Amphotericin B (Amp B) sensitive strain (S1-OE) modulates resistance towards oxidative stress and drug pressure, and reveals a novel crosstalk between Ld CS and thiol metabolic pathway proteins and demonstrates the crucial role in drug resistance and redox homeostasis of Leishmania.
Journal ArticleDOI

Up-regulation of cytosolic tryparedoxin in Amp B resistant isolates of Leishmania donovani and its interaction with cytosolic tryparedoxin peroxidase.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated at the translational level that Ld-cTXN protein is upregulated in Amp B resistant isolates accompanied by enhanced peroxidase activity, as compared to sensitive strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leishmania and its quest for iron: An update and overview.

TL;DR: Since iron plays central roles in the host's response and parasite metabolism, a comprehensive understanding of the iron metabolism is beneficial to identify potential viable therapeutic opportunities against leishmaniasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stage-dependent expression and up-regulation of trypanothione synthetase in amphotericin B resistant Leishmania donovani.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates stage- and Amp B sensitivity-dependent expression of LdTryS in L. donovani and involvement of TryS during oxidative stress to help the parasites survival.
