In-situ proliferation contributes to the accumulation of myeloid cells in the spleen during progressive experimental visceral leishmaniasis.
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is characterized by expansion of myeloid cells in the liver and spleen, which leads to a severe splenomegaly associated with higher risk of mortality.
