Persistent Vulvar Itch Unresponsive to Treatment: A Case of Vulvar Schistosomiasis Caused by Schistosoma mansoni and a Brief Review of Literature. [PDF]
Background. Vulvar schistosomiasis is a female genital schistosomiasis (FGS), which occurs because of the damage caused by the presence of schistosome ova within the vulva. FGS is mostly misdiagnosed as a sexually transmitted infection. There is no reported case of vulvar schistosomiasis from Schistosoma mansoni in an immunocompetent or ...

Multidisciplinary Preclinical Investigations on Ferrocenyl, Ruthenocenyl, and Benzyl Derivatives of Niridazole as New Drug Candidates against Schistosomiasis. [PDF]
Novel organometallic derivatives of niridazole are designed, synthesized, and tested against Schistosoma mansoni. Schistosomiasis affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide, yet its chemotherapeutic treatment is based on the only drug available‐praziquantel (PZQ).

The role of the host gut microbiome in the pathophysiology of schistosomiasis
Abstract The pathophysiology of schistosomiasis is linked to the formation of fibrous granulomas around eggs that become trapped in host tissues, particularly the intestines and liver, during their migration to reach the lumen of the vertebrate gut. While the development of Schistosoma egg‐induced granulomas is the result of finely regulated crosstalk ...

Estudo da ação "in vitro" da Oxamniquine sobre bactérias do gênero Salmonella
Os autores estudaram a ação "in vitro" da oxamniquine sobre dez espécies de salmonelas. Verificaram que diluições de 1,56 a 400 mcg/ml não exerceram qualquer efeito no crescimento bacteriano. Estas observações têm implicações no tratamento da salmonelose

Combined in silico machinery, consisting of long‐ and short‐range molecular interaction methods is capable of filtering large compound databases, yielding a good candidate for a receptor. The advantage of this approach is a fast assessment of a candidate, starting from basic information on both protein and small organic molecule – FASTA sequence and ...

Quantification of Proteins Involved in Intestinal Epithelial Handling of Xenobiotics
The intestinal epithelium represents a natural barrier against harmful xenobiotics, while facilitating the uptake of nutrients and other substances. Understanding the interaction of chemicals with constituents of the intestinal epithelium and their fate in the body requires quantitative measurement of relevant proteins in in vitro systems and ...
