  • Title: Evaluation of different assay techniques to assess the interaction between Leishmania major and L. infantum promastigotes and U937 cells.
    Author: Savoia D, Vulcano F, Biglino S, Zucca M.
    Journal: Microbios; 1991; 66(267):73-81. PubMed ID: 1648163.
    Abstract:
    Adherence of Leishmania major and L. infantum promastigotes to U937 cells was determined by microscopic observation or by using radiolabelled parasites. With both methods L. infantum showed a greater adherence. Aspecific attachment to plastic was greater for L. major. The possible implications of these findings in connection with disease pathogenesis are briefly discussed.
