In vitro antileishmanial activity of thioridazine on amphotericin B unresponsive/ sensitive Leishmania donovani promastigotes and intracellular amastigotes
In this study, we evaluated the drug activity of TRZ against amphotericin-B (Amp-B) sensitive and unresponsive Leishmania donovani promastigotes, as well as intracellular amastigotes (drug sensitive). We observed a potent antileishmanial activity of TRZ with significantly low half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) on both the variants of promastigotes (0.61 ± 0.15 μM). These concentrations are comparable to the previously reported IC50 concentration of the current antileishmanial drug (Amp-B) against L. donovani. Light microscopy reveals the perturbations in promastigote morphology upon TRZ treatment. The in vitro...

Dermal microdialysis: A method to determine drug levels in the skin of patients with Post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL)
Exp Parasitol. 2023 Dec 17:108687. doi: 10.1016/j.exppara.2023.108687. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOBJECTIVES: Post-kala-azar-dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) is an infectious skin disease that occurs as sequela of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and causes cutaneous lesions on the face and other exposed body parts. While the first-line drug miltefosine is typically used for 28 days to treat VL, 12 weeks of therapy is required for PKDL, highlighting the need to evaluate the extent of drug penetration at the dermal site of infection. In this proof-of-concept study, we demonstrate the use of a minimally invasive sampling technique ...
