Is leishmaniasis the new emerging zoonosis in the world?

Abstract: Leishmania is a genus of parasitic protozoa that causes a disease called leishmaniasis. Leishmaniasis is transmitted to humans through the bites of infected female sandflies. There are several different species of Leishmania that can cause various forms of the disease, and the symptoms can range from mild to severe, depending on species of Leishmania involved and the immune response of the host. Leishmania parasites have a variety of reservoirs, including humans, domestic animals, horses, rodents, wild animals, birds, and reptiles. Leishmaniasis is endemic of 90 countries, mainly in South American, East and West Africa, Mediterranean region, Indian subcontinent, and Central Asia. In recent years, cases have been detected in other countries, and it is already an infection present throughout the world. The increase in temperatures due to climate change makes it possible for sandflies to appear in countries with traditionally colder regions, and the easy movement of people and animals today, facilitate the appearance of Leishmania species in new countries. These data mean that leishmaniasis will probably become an emerging zoonosis and a public health problem in the coming years, which we must consider controlling it from a One Health point of view. This review summarizes the prevalence of Leishmania spp. around the world and the current knowledge regarding the animals that could be reservoirs of the parasite.

Summary

This research summary has been generated with artificial intelligence and may contain errors and omissions. Refer to the original study to confirm details provided. Submit correction.

This research study explores the global prevalence and spread of leishmaniasis, a disease caused by the Leishmania parasite and transmitted through the bites of infected sandflies. Due to climate change and increased global movement, the study indicates that leishmaniasis may become a growing public health concern.

Understanding Leishmaniasis

  • Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by Leishmania, a genus of parasitic protozoa. It is transmitted to humans when they are bitten by infected female sandflies.
  • There are various species of Leishmania that can cause different forms of the disease. The severity of the symptoms can range from mild to severe, depending on the specific Leishmania species involved and the host’s immune response.

Reservoirs and Geographical Spread of Leishmaniasis

  • The Leishmania parasites exist in a variety of reservoirs, including humans, domestic animals, horses, rodents, wild animals, birds, and reptiles.
  • Leishmaniasis can be found in 90 countries, primarily in South America, East and West Africa, the Mediterranean region, the Indian subcontinent, and Central Asia. However, cases have been detected worldwide.

Leishmaniasis as an Emerging Zoonosis

  • Due to rising temperatures from climate change, sandflies can now survive in countries traditionally regarded as colder regions. This increases the likelihood of the Leishmania parasite appearing in these countries.
  • The easy movement of people and animals globally facilitates the spread of Leishmania species to new countries, potentially making leishmaniasis a global public health concern.
  • The study suggests that leishmaniasis will likely become an emerging zoonosis and should be controlled from a One Health perspective, which highlights the interconnection between people, animals, plants, and their shared environment.

Current Knowledge and Prevalence of Leishmania

  • The review concludes by summarizing the current knowledge regarding animals that could serve as reservoirs for the Leishmania parasite.
  • It underscores the need to understand the prevalence of various Leishmania species globally, thereby informing efforts to combat this potential emerging zoonosis.
