New Perspectives on a Subclinical Form of Visceral Leishmaniasis
Roberto Badaró,T. C. Jones,Edgar M. Carvalho,Diana P. Sampaio,Steven G. Reed,Aldina Barral,R. Teixeira,Warren D. Johnson +7 more
TL;DR: During an epidemiological study of visceral leishmaniasis in an endemic region of Brazil, new perspectives emerged on a subclinical form of the disease, where a group of 86 children with antibody to Leishmania were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular characterization of a kinesin-related antigen of Leishmania chagasi that detects specific antibody in African and American visceral leishmaniasis.
J. M. Burns,Wayne G. Shreffler,Darin R. Benson,Hashim W. Ghalib,Roberto Badaró,Reed Steven G +5 more
TL;DR: The cloning of a Leishmania chagasi antigen gene and an evaluation of leishmaniasis patient antibody responses to the recombinant protein, rK39, show that rK 39 may replace crude parasite antigens as a basis for serological diagnosis of visceral leish maniasis.
Journal Article
Identification of differentially expressed genes in human prostate cancer using subtraction and microarray.
Jiangchun Xu,John A. Stolk,Xinqun Zhang,Sandra J. Silva,Raymond L. Houghton,Masazumi Matsumura,Thomas S. Vedvick,Kevin B. Leslie,Roberto Badaró,Steven G. Reed +9 more
TL;DR: The identified human prostate cancer- and tissue-specific genes using cDNA library subtraction in conjunction with high throughput microarray screening are potential candidates for cancer diagnosis and therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leishmaniasis in Bahia, Brazil: evidence that Leishmania amazonensis produces a wide spectrum of clinical disease.
Aldina Barral,Diana Pedral-Sampaio,Grimaldi Júnior G,Hooman Momen,Diane McMahon-Pratt,Ribeiro de Jesus A,Roque P. Almeida,Roberto Badaró,Manoel Barral-Netto,Edgar M. Carvalho +9 more
TL;DR: In situ tissue parasite characterization, by immunoperoxidase assay and employing anti-L.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Prospective Study of Visceral Leishmaniasis in an Endemic Area of Brazil
Roberto Badaró,T. C. Jones,Rosemarie Lorenço,B. J. Cerf,Diana P. Sampaio,Edgar M. Carvalho,Heonir Rocha,R. Teixeira,Warren D. Johnson +8 more
TL;DR: The epidemiology, clinical patterns, and risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis were prospectively studied in an endemic area of Brazil and found that early diagnosis and therapy altered clinical patterns of the disease.
