Melittin induces in vitro death of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum by triggering the cellular innate immune response

Melittin induces in vitro death of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum by triggering the cellular innate immune response

Abstract Background Apis mellifera venom, which has already been recommended as an alternative anti-inflammatory treatment, may be also considered an important source of candidate molecules for biotechnological and biomedical uses, such as the treatment of parasitic diseases. Methods Africanized...
