Molecular signatures of anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in the lesions of patients infected with Leishmania tropica

ABSTRACT: In this study employed a systems analysis approach to study molecular signatures of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) caused by Leishmania tropica (L. tropica) in the skin lesions of ulcerativeCL (UCL) and non-ulcerative CL( NUCL) patients. Results from RNA-seq analysis determined shared and unique functional transcriptional pathways in the lesions of the UCL and Nucl patients. Several transcriptional pathways involved in inflammatory response were positively enriched in the CL lesions. These results enhance our understanding of human skin response to CL caused by L. tropica.
