Human genetics of leishmania infectionsGWAS results provide firm confirmation for the importance of antigen presentation and the regulation of IFNγ in determining the outcome of Leishmania infections
Research
Comparative analyses of whole genome sequences of Leishmania infantum isolates from humans and dogs in northeastern BrazilOverall the analyses do not suggest individual sequence variants account for differences in clinical outcome or adaptation to different hosts.
