Abstract
After establishing the immunostimulatory activity, these peptides were evaluated for immunoprophylactic efficacy as well as for use as adjunct to chemotherapy with stibanate (SSG) against Leishmania donovani infection in golden hamster. These peptides were found quite effective in both the modes. In adjunct use the treatment may require lower dose of SSG and thereby reduce the chances of drug toxicity.
