Functional analysis of cytosolic tryparedoxin peroxidase in antimony-resistant and –susceptible Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania infantum lines

BACKGROUND: Tryparedoxin peroxidase (TXNPx) participates in defence against oxidative stress as an antioxidant by metabolizing hydrogen peroxide into water molecules. Reports suggest that drug-resistant parasites may increase the levels of TXNPx and other enzymes, thereby protecting them against oxi...
