Description

Leishmaniasis remains a major global health threat, causing an estimated 1.3 million new cases and more than 20,000 deaths every year. Because there is currently no anti-Leishmania vaccine, and existing anti-parasite drugs carry toxicity risks, the medical community faces significant hurdles in disease management. This challenge is made more difficult by the rapid emergence of drug-resistant Leishmania strains. This academic text addresses these urgent issues by providing a deep look into the current landscape of the disease. It covers vital research areas including parasite biology and how parasites interact with their hosts. Readers will find detailed information regarding the mechanisms of disease pathogenesis and the molecular mechanisms of drugs. By exploring recent developments in drug development, this book serves as a resource for understanding the complexities of controlling this persistent menace.
