Published in 2022 at "Cell Biology International"

DOI: 10.1002/cbin.11880

Abstract: Lipophosphoglycan (LPG), the major Leishmania glycoconjugate, induces pro‐inflammatory/immunosuppressive innate immune responses. Here, we evaluated functional/biochemical LPG properties from six Leishmania amazonensis strains from different hosts/clinical forms. LPGs from three strains (GV02, BA276, and LV79) had… read more here.
