Treatment of Refractory Mucosal Leishmaniasis Is Associated with Parasite Overexpression of HSP70 and ATPase and Reduced Host Hydrogen Peroxide Production (Brief Report)
We hypothesise that these parasite molecules may be linked to the impairment of host parasiticidal responses, resulting in Leishmania persistence in ML patients.
