The paper investigates the role of Argonaute in controlling viral replication in Leishmania martiniquensis, finding that its loss reduces viral RNA abundance and disrupts small RNA accumulation.

This study identifies a pH-dependent kinase cascade in Leishmania that regulates differentiation into infectious stages, revealing key pathways for acid adaptation and transmission.

This study identifies Dicer-like 1 and Argonaute 1 as critical for controlling viral RNA levels in Leishmania guyanensis via a canonical RNA interference pathway.

The paper identifies 34 transporter genes essential for Leishmania promastigote survival in sand flies, with V-ATPase subunits critical for parasite differentiation and life cycle progression.

This study identifies Chinese hamsters and Steppe lemmings as new animal models for studying Mundinia Leishmania species, showing susceptibility and infectiousness to sand flies.

This study uses 3D electron microscopy to analyze Leishmania mexicana cell cycle stages, revealing organelle duplication, segregation patterns, and metabolic adaptations in different environments.
