Lutzomyia longipalpis TGF-β Has a Role in Leishmania infantum chagasi Survival in the Vector
Despite the increasing number of studies concerning insect immunity, Lutzomyia longipalpis immune responses in the presence of Leishmania infantum chagasi infection has not been widely investigated. The few available studies analyzed the role of the Toll and IMD pathways involved in response against...
