Short report
Torsten J Naucke, Susanne Lorentz Parasites & Vectors 2012, 5:67 (1 April 2012) This article is part of a collection on 7th Symposium on Canine... We report a case of canine leishmaniosis in a female boxer dog from central Germany, an area without the presence of sandflies. The infection was acquired venerally and transmitted vertically to one puppy of the next generation. Image: An IFAT, positive for Leishmania infantum.

Luís Cardoso, Cláudio Mendão, Luís Madeira de Carvalho Parasites & Vectors 2012, 5:62 (27 March 2012) This article is part of a collection on 7th Symposium on Canine... Seroprevalence of infection with or exposure to Dirofilaria immitis, Ehrlichia canis, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Anaplasma spp. and Leishmania infantum was assessed in dogs from Portugal. Results are expected to give veterinarians and public health authorities an increased awareness on canine vector-borne diseases and to promote control actions.

Javier Carrión, Cristina Folgueira, Manuel Soto, Manuel Fresno, Jose M Requena Parasites & Vectors 2011, 4:150 (27 July 2011) This study describes the ability of a Leishmania infantum deletion mutant, lacking both HSP70-II alleles (ΔHSP70-II), to provide protection against L. major in the BALB/c infection model. Furthermore, ΔHSP70-II could be a safe live vaccine as administration to SCID mice and hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) did not develop any sign of pathology. Image:Pre-inoculation of mice with ΔHSP70-II promastigotes prevented footpad lesion development after a challenge with virulent L. major.
