Freshwater snails of biomedical importance in the Niger River Valley: evidence of temporal and spatial patterns in abundance, distribution and infection with Schistosoma spp.

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Sound knowledge of the abundance and distribution of intermediate host snails is key to understanding schistosomiasis transmission and to inform effective interventions in endemic areas.

Single-cell atlas of the first intra-mammalian developmental stage of the human parasite Schistosoma mansoni

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Over 250 million people suffer from schistosomiasis, a tropical disease caused by parasitic flatworms known as schistosomes. Humans become infected by free-swimming, water-borne larvae, which penetrate the skin. The earliest intra-mammalian stage, called

Chemosterilization of Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1968
THE range of chemical agents which can produce sterility in experimental male rodents is gradually increasing. (For recent surveys, see Jackson1,2.) The list includes nitroaromatic compounds, for example, nitrofuranes, nitrothiazoles and nitropyrroles, besides a variety of compounds of the alkylating category.

Evaluation of Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) in Urine Samples for the Diagnosis of Imported Schistosomiasis

open access: yesTropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2023
Migratory flows and international travel are triggering an increase in imported cases of schistosomiasis in non-endemic countries. The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the LAMP technique on patients’ urine samples for the diagnosis of ...

The Mannose Receptor in Regulation of Helminth-Mediated Host Immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Infection with parasitic helminths affects humanity and animal welfare. Parasitic helminths have the capacity to modulate host immune responses to promote their survival in infected hosts, often for a long time leading to chronic infections.
