Characteristics of Intestinal Flora in Patients With Schistosoma japonicum Infection Undergoing Splenectomy

Parasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Schistosomiasis japonica is a parasitic disease that seriously endangers human health. Patients with advanced Schistosoma japonicum infection often suffer from cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Splenectomy has been widely used in the treatment of these patients. Previous studies have confirmed that S. japonicum infection is closely related to

Tracing the Evolution of Sex Hormones and Receptor‐Mediated Immune Microenvironmental Differences in Prostate and Bladder Cancers: From Embryonic Development to Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 13, April 3, 2025.
Prostate and bladder cancers activate genes and pathways similar to those in the developmental stage by aggregating and analyzing current data. In this process, sex hormones and their receptors maybe a key role in causing and reversing the “cold” and “hot” immune tumor phenotypes, potentially enhancing the immune response.

Investigating genetic profiles of cases of Schistosoma spp. imported into Europe: a cohort from the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Study Group for Clinical Parasitology

Parasites & Vectors
Background The potential of schistosomiasis to spread across borders, coupled with the considerable delay by which infected travellers and migrants are diagnosed in Europe, calls for better surveillance of the distribution of this disease.
