ASTRAGALUS MEMBRANACEUS AND LONICERA JAPONICA: PROMISING FOR NOVEL SCHISTOSOMA MANSONI CONTROL APPROACH [PDF]

Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2018
Immunostimulants have the ability to reduce susceptibility to different infections and to enhance the overall health. This study assessed the effect of Astragalus membranaceus and Lonicera japonica, Chinese herbs, on Biomphalaria alexandrina snails ...

Molluscicidal and antioxidant activities of silver nanoparticles on the multi-species of snail intermediate hosts of schistosomiasis

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
Background Schistosomiasis, also known as bilharzia, is the second important parasitic disease after malaria. The present study aimed to evaluate the molluscicidal effects of silver nanoparticles on Biomphalaria alexandrina, B.

Opportunity or catastrophe? effect of sea salt on host-parasite survival and reproduction

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022
Seawater intrusion associated with decreasing groundwater levels and rising seawater levels may affect freshwater species and their parasites. While brackish water certainly impacts freshwater systems globally, its impact on disease transmission is ...

Development of an in vitro drug screening assay using Schistosoma haematobium schistosomula [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: The development of novel antischistosomal drugs is crucial, as currently no vaccine and only a single drug is available for the treatment of schistosomiasis.

Identification of a genetic marker associated with the resistance to Schistosoma mansoni infection using random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006
In schistosomiasis, the host/parasite interaction remains not completely understood. Many questions related to the susceptibility of snails to infection by respective trematode still remain unanswered.

Genetic Varation Between Biomphalaria Alexandrina and Biomphalaria Glabrata Snails and Their Infection with Egyptian Strain of Schistosoma Mansoni

, 2009
: Schistosomiasis remains one of the most prevalent parasitic infections and has significant economic and public health consequences in many developing countries. Understanding the host/parasite association is important for control this parasite.
