In mammals, the NTPDases play important roles in the regulation of thrombosis and inflammation. In parasites of the genus Leishmania, the causative agents of leishmaniasis, two NTPDase isoforms, termed NTPDase-1 and NTPDase-2 have been described. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Zn(ii) meso-tetrakis(N-ethylpyridinium-2-yl)porphyrin (ZnTE-2-PyP4 , ZnP) is a cationic, water-soluble, zinc porphyrin-based photosensitizer whose photodynamic effect on Leishmania braziliensis was analyzed by evaluating the number of visibly undamaged [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
