Apoptosis-like cell death in Leishmania donovani treated with KalsomeTM10, a new liposomal amphotericin B
TL;DR: KalsomeTM10 induces apoptotic-like cell death in L. donovani parasites to exhibit its anti-leishmanial function and is more effective then Ambisome against the promastigote as well as intracellular amastigotes forms.
Liposomal Elongation Factor-1α Triggers Effector CD4 and CD8 T Cells for Induction of Long-Lasting Protective Immunity against Visceral Leishmaniasis.

TL;DR: Liposomal EF1-α is a novel and potent vaccine formulation against VL that imparts long-term protective responses and the flexibility of this formulation opens up the scope to combine additional adjuvants and epitope selected antigens for use in other disease forms also.
Therapeutic and immunomodulatory activities of short-course treatment of murine visceral leishmaniasis with KALSOME™10, a new liposomal amphotericin B
TL;DR: KALSOME™10 is emphasized as a promising drug alternative for lifelong protection from VL by maintaining the inherent immunomodulatory activities of AmB by effectively suppressing disease promoting cytokines IL-10 and TGFβ, thereby boosting IL-12 and IFNγ levels.
RNA-Seq Revealed Expression of Many Novel Genes Associated With Leishmania donovani Persistence and Clearance in the Host Macrophage.
