Expression profile of the Schistosoma japonicum degradome reveals differential protease expression patterns and potential anti-schistosomal intervention targets. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2014 Blood fluke proteases play pivotal roles in the processes of invasion, nutrition acquisition, immune evasion, and other host-parasite interactions. Hundreds of genes encoding putative proteases have been identified in the recently published schistosome ...

Schistosoma japonicum-Associated Colorectal Cancer: A Review.
American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2019 Schistosoma japonicum is a digenetic blood fluke that has been implicated in the carcinogenesis of several human malignancies, notably liver and colorectal cancer (CRC). Schistosoma japonicum-associated colorectal cancer (SACC) is a distinct subtype with

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.ABSTRACT Fascioliasis is a common hepatic parasitic disease that is caused by Fasciola, resulting in significant economic losses by reducing production and consigning viscera in animals. Currently, there is little research regarding the impact of chemical compounds on the ultrastructure and motility of adult F. hepatica.
