PKDL--A Silent Parasite Pool for Transmission of Leishmaniasis in Kala-azar Endemic Areas of Malda District, West Bengal, India.
Swagata Ganguly,Pabitra Saha,Moytrey Chatterjee,Surajit Roy,Tamal Kanti Ghosh,Subhasish Kamal Guha,Pratip Kumar Kundu,Dilip K. Bera,Nandita Basu,Ardhendu Kumar Maji +9 more
TL;DR: Comparison of the three diagnostic tools for PKDL case detection and pattern of lesion regression after treatment found PCR is highly sensitive (88.46%) for case confirmation and a well-designed study with higher number of samples is essential to establish when/whether PKDL patients are free from parasite after treatment and to determine which PK DL patients need treatment for longer period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Expression and Significance of Circulating microRNAs in Cerebrospinal Fluid of Acute Encephalitis Patients Infected with Japanese Encephalitis Virus.
Saptamita Goswami,Atoshi Banerjee,Bharti Kumari,Bhaswati Bandopadhyay,Nemai Bhattacharya,Nandita Basu,Sudhanshu Vrati,Arup Banerjee +7 more
TL;DR: This study for the first time represents the circulating miRNA in CSF of AES patients and identified the upregulated miRNAs in JEV-infected patients and offers the basis for future investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA-Seq analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells reveals unique transcriptional signatures associated with disease progression in dengue patients
Arup Banerjee,Shweta Shukla,Abhay Deep Pandey,Saptamita Goswami,Bhaswati Bandyopadhyay,Vishnampettai G. Ramachandran,Shukla Das,Arjun Malhotra,Amitesh Agarwal,Srima Adhikari,Mehebubar Rahman,Shatakshee Chatterjee,Nemai Bhattacharya,Nandita Basu,Priyanka Pandey,Vikas Sood,Sudhanshu Vrati +16 more
TL;DR: High activity of MPO and ELANE in the plasma samples of the follow‐up and recovered dengue patients, as well as and the presence of a larger amount of cell‐free dsDNA in the DS patients, suggested an association of neutrophil‐mediated immunity with d Dengue disease progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation of altered expression of a long non-coding RNA, NEAT1, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells with dengue disease progression
Abhay Deep Pandey,Saptamita Goswami,Shweta Shukla,Shaoli Das,Suman Ghosal,Manisha Pal,Bhaswati Bandyopadhyay,Vishnampettai G. Ramachandran,Nandita Basu,Vikas Sood,Priyanka Pandey,Jayprokas Chakrabarti,Sudhanshu Vrati,Arup Banerjee +13 more
TL;DR: The results of this study offer the first experimental evidence demonstrating the correlation between lncRNAs and severe dengue phenotype and Monitoring NEAT1and IFI27 expression in PBMC may be useful in understanding dengued virus-induced disease progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymptomatic leishmaniasis in kala-azar endemic areas of Malda district, West Bengal, India.
Pabitra Saha,Swagata Ganguly,Swagata Ganguly,Moytrey Chatterjee,Soumendu Bikash Das,Pratip Kumar Kundu,Subhasish Kamal Guha,Tamal Kanti Ghosh,Dilip K. Bera,Nandita Basu,Ardhendu Kumar Maji +10 more
TL;DR: If there are no VL /PKDL cases for two or more years, it does not mean that the area is free from leishmaniasis as symptomatic VL or PKDL may appear even after three years, if there are such asymptomatic cases.
