Overview

This research identifies LRV2 in cutaneous leishmaniasis patients and reveals significant genetic diversity, highlighting potential implications for disease transmission.

Key Points

LRV2 was identified in 12.5% of 32 cutaneous leishmaniasis patients, indicating its presence in western Iran.
Phylogenetic analysis revealed high genetic diversity among LRV2 isolates with 96-99% sequence identity to strains from neighboring countries.
The study utilized PCR analysis to detect LRV2, contributing important data for understanding its role in cutaneous leishmaniasis.
Findings suggest high genetic variability in LRV2 may impact its pathogenesis and transmission dynamics in affected regions.
