We currently face an alarming resurgence in infectious diseases characterized by antimicrobial resistance and therapeutic failure. This has generated the urgent need of developing new therapeutic approaches that include agents with nontraditional modes of action. A recent interest focused on approac

BACKGROUND: Different species of the genus Leishmania can cause cutaneous (CL) and mucosal leishmaniasis (ML). PCR-based tests allow a rapid diagnosis and determination of the species, thereby enabling species-oriented treatment. Such treatment procedures have not been evaluated to date.METHODS: Pat
