Abstract

A scoring method to standardize lesion monitoring following intra-dermal infection of Leishmania parasites in the murine ear.

Highlights

  • A scoring method to standardize lesion monitoring following intra-dermal infection of Leishmania parasites in the murine ear Steffen Schuster 1,2, Mary-Anne Hartley 1, Fabienne Tacchini-Cottier 1,2 and Catherine Ronet 1*

  • In order to better evaluate these measurement systems, we compared them across various murine models known for their diverse disease outcome in Leishmania major infection

  • No significant differences in lesion development were observed between stationary-phase or purified metacyclic promastigotes

Introduction

A scoring method to standardize lesion monitoring following intra-dermal infection of Leishmania parasites in the murine ear Steffen Schuster 1,2, Mary-Anne Hartley 1, Fabienne Tacchini-Cottier 1,2 and Catherine Ronet 1*. No significant differences in lesion development were observed between stationary-phase or purified metacyclic promastigotes (data not shown).
