Neutrophils reduce the parasite burden in Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis-infected macrophages.
<h4>Background</h4>Studies on the role of neutrophils in Leishmania infection were mainly performed with L. (L) major, whereas less information is available for L. (L) amazonensis. Previous results from our laboratory showed a large infiltrate of neutrophils in the site of infection in a...
