PMID: 30535600
The cofactors nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and its phosphate form, NADP, are crucial molecules present in all living cells. The delicate balance between the oxidized and reduced forms of these...

. 2016 Nov;
9(1):578.
PMID: 27842606
Background: Phlebotomus ariasi Tonnoir, 1921, is the predominant sand fly species in the Cevennes region and a proven vector of Leishmania infantum, which is the main pathogen of visceral and...

PMID: 27297183
SIR2 proteins are NAD+-dependent deacetylases involved in epigenetic control of gene expression and metabolic regulation through post-translational modification of diverse target proteins. In pathogens, these enzymes are considered as attractive...

PLoS Negl Trop Dis
. 2016 Feb;
10(2):e0004458.
PMID: 26900688
Background: The recent geographical expansion of phlebotomine vectors of Leishmania infantum in the Mediterranean subregion has been attributed to ongoing climate changes. At these latitudes, the activity of sand flies...
