Nucleosides Present on Phlebotomine Saliva Induce Immunossuppression and Promote the Infection Establishment
Vanessa Carregaro,José M. C. Ribeiro,Jesus G. Valenzuela,Djalma L. Souza-Júnior,Diego L. Costa,Carlo José Freire Oliveira,Laís A. Sacramento,Manuela Sales Lima Nascimento,Cristiane M. Milanezi,Fernando Q. Cunha,João Santana da Silva +10 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ADO and AMP in P. papatasi saliva mediate exacerbative effects of Leishmania infection by acting preferentially on DCs promoting a tolerogenic profile in DCs and by generating iTregs in inflammatory foci through an A2AR mechanism.
Cytostatic effect of Lutzomyia longipalpis salivary gland homogenates on Leishmania parasites.
TL;DR: Salivary gland homogenates of female Lutzomyia longipalpis inhibit the in vitro multiplication of promastigotes of Leishmania mexicana amazonensis, suggesting that vector saliva could influence the development of Leishesmania parasites within the vector by inhibiting their growth and triggering them to a differentiation pathway.

Effect of salivary gland extract of Leishmania vector, Lutzomyia longipalpis, on leukocyte migration in OVA-induced immune peritonitis
Marta Chagas Monteiro,Luciana Gabriel Nogueira,Adelson Alcimar Almeida de Souza,José M. C. Ribeiro,João Santana da Silva,Fernando Q. Cunha +5 more
TL;DR: The effectiveness of SGE in inhibiting neutrophil migration and inflammatory mediators release in a Th1 immune inflammatory response model reinforces the need for isolation of the compounds responsible for these activities, which could be used as prototypes for the development new anti‐inflammatory drugs.

Malaria vaccines: lessons from field trials
Claudio J. Struchiner,M. Elizabeth Halloran,Robert C. Brunet,José M. C. Ribeiro,Eduardo Massad +4 more
TL;DR: A brief description of specific issues of validity that are relevant when assessing vaccine efficacy in the field are presented and how the application of these principles might improve the interpretation of the data being gathered in actual malaria vaccine field trials are illustrated.
Salivary Kratagonists: Scavengers of Host Physiological Effectors During Blood Feeding
John F. Andersen,José M. C. Ribeiro +1 more

TL;DR: A common functional theme of salivary proteins from blood-feeding arthropods is the sequestration of host physiological effectors through the action of binding proteins that have been given the name kratagonists.
