Genetic Analysis of Leishmania donovani Tropism Using a Naturally Attenuated Cutaneous Strain
A central question in Leishmania research is why most species cause cutaneous infections but others cause fatal visceral disease. Interestingly, L. donovani causes both visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis in Sri Lanka. L. donovani clinical isolates were therefore obtained from cutaneous leishmanias...
