Project description:The mRNA expression of antimony resistant strains of Leishmania donovani was compared to the expression of the sensitive Leishmania donovani.
Project description:Gene expression analysis was carried out between experimental Paromomycin resistant Leishmania donovani (adapted to 100 µM paromomycin drug pressure) and it's corresponding wild type paromomycin sensitive parasite.
Project description:Gene expression analysis was carried out between experimental artesunate resistant Leishmania donovani (adapted to 50 µM artesunate drug pressure) and it's corresponding wild type artesunate sensitive parasite.
Project description:The mRNA expression of antimony resistant strains of Leishmania donovani was compared to the expression of the sensitive Leishmania donovani. The antimony resistant and sensitive Leishmania donovani were grown in complete M199 medium with 10% FCS and Penicillin streptomycin mixture. At stationary phase (5 day culture) cells were harvested in sterile Phosphate buffered saline and used for RNA isolation.
Project description:Differential gene expression analysis was carried out in clinical isolates of Leishmania donovani (L. donovani) parasite derived from VL patient before miltefosine treatment, post treatment and patient that relpased after miltefosine treatment
Project description:Gene expression analysis was carried out between experimental miltefosine resistant L.donovani (adapted to 30ug/ml miltefosine drug pressure) and its corresponding wild type miltefosine senstive parasite 3 biological replicates of lab generated miltefosine resistant Leishmania donovani (K417 M30) were compared with corresponding wild type sensitive parasite (K417WT)
Project description:Murine bone marrow derived macrophages were infected with Leishmania major or Leishmania donovania promastigotes, allowed to phagocytose latex beads or not treated. Gene expression profiles were compared to identify i) the effect of Leishmania infection; ii) the differences in effects between L. major and L. donovani; and iii) the effect of pahgocytosis of latex beads.
