Intestinal parasitic infections in schoolchildren in different settings of Côte d'Ivoire : effect of diagnostic approach and implications for control [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Social-ecological systems govern parasitic infections in humans. Within the frame of assessing the accuracy of a rapid diagnostic test for Schistosoma mansoni in Cote d'Ivoire, three different endemicity settings had to be identified and ...

B1 cells protect against Schistosoma japonicum–induced liver inflammation and fibrosis by controlling monocyte infiltration

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
During Schistosoma infection, lack of B cells results in more severe granulomas, inflammation, and fibrosis in the liver, but the mechanisms underlying this pathology remain unclear.

Transmission dynamics of Schistosoma japonicum within China

, 2009
Schistosoma japonicum, a multi-host parasite, remains highly endemic in China and has recently re-emerged in previously controlled regions. One reason may be, given the current human- and bovine-based control policy, due to a serious lack of knowledge ...

Toll-like receptor-2 regulates macrophage polarization induced by excretory-secretory antigens from Schistosoma japonicum eggs and promotes liver pathology in murine schistosomiasis

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Schistosomiasis is endemic to many regions of the world and affects approximately 200 million people. Conventional adaptive T cell responses are considered to be the primary contributors to the pathogenesis of Schistosoma japonicum infection, leading to ...

Variations in fecal Schistosoma japonicum egg counts.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 1998
Variations in fecal Schistosoma japonicum egg counts were studied in ZhuXi administrative village, JiangXi Province, China. Population stool examinations were collected with duplicate, standard, 41.5-mg Kato-Katz thick smears on seven consecutive days for 570 individuals from two natural (individual) villages: village I with high endemicity and village

Dynamic transcriptomes identify biogenic amines and insect-like hormonal regulation for mediating reproduction in Schistosoma japonicum

Nature Communications, 2017
Eggs produced by the mature female parasite are responsible for the pathogenesis and transmission of schistosomiasis. Female schistosomes rely on a unique male-induced strategy to accomplish reproductive development, a process that is incompletely ...

Schistosome serine protease inhibitors: parasite defense or homeostasis?

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2011
Serpins are a structurally conserved family of macromolecular inhibitors found in numerous biological systems. The completion and annotation of the genomes of Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum has enabled the identification by phylogenetic ...

Field Evaluation of a Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) Platform for the Detection of Schistosoma japonicum Infection in Oncomelania hupensis Snails

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2018
Schistosoma infection in snails can be monitored by microscopy or indirectly by sentinel mice. As both these approaches can miss infections, more sensitive tests are needed, particularly in low-level transmission settings.
