HLA-typing in Schistosoma japonicum infection

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1988
Abstract : HLA-typing was recently performed on 41 schistosomiasis patients and 25 uninfected Filipino controls to investigate why patients have either cerebral or hepatic involvement. Neither the following tests HLA-B16, HLA-B40, nor other HLA-typing were significantly frequent in patients with cerebral schistosomiasis.

Schistosoma japonicum infection in pregnant mice

Journal of Helminthology, 1999
Ten 1-week and ten 2-weeks pregnant female NMRI mice were experimentally exposed to 70 Schistosoma japonicum cercariae. Ten littermice from each group were examined for worms by perfusion 4, 6 and 8 weeks post infection. Although the mothers (n = 15) were found infected with 15.5 ± 13.4 worms at perfusion 6 and 7 weeks post infection, no worms were ...

Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum: Utilization of amino acids

International Journal for Parasitology, 1972
Abstract Bruce J. I. , Ruff M. D. , Belusko R. J. and Werner J. K. 1972. Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum : utilization of amino acids. International Journal for Parasitology 2: 425–430. The production of 14 CO 2 from 12 labeled amino acids by S. mansoni and S. japonicum was studied.

Host Identification by Schistosoma japonicum Cercariae

The Journal of Parasitology, 1987
Attachment, the first phase of host identification by Schistosoma japonicum cercariae, can occur in 2 different ways. Cercariae clinging to the water surface simply swing around and transfer to the host skin. Free-swimming cercariae behave like S. mansoni: upon touching a substrate, they switch from tailward to forward movement, swim in an arc, and ...

Nutritional Requirements of Schistosoma japonicum Eggs

The Journal of Parasitology, 1983
Newly laid eggs of Schistosoma japonicum were cultured in a serum-free, chemically defined medium, RPMI 1640, which contained 20 amino acids, glutathione, 11 vitamins, and glucose in a balanced salt solution. The requirements for these components in the nutrition of the eggs was investigated by the deletion of single component from the medium.

The energy metabolism of Schistosoma japonicum

International Journal of Biochemistry, 1980
Abstract The energy metabolism of Schistosoma japonicum has been summarized and discussed. Fluoroacetamide is used as a chemical probe to study this problem.

Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum: Oxygen uptake by miracidia

Experimental Parasitology, 1971
Abstract The respiration of miracidia of Schistosoma mansoni and the Japanese, Philippine, and Formosan strains of S. japonicum was measured in the presence and absence of 0.001 m glucose at 1 and 5 hr after hatching. Aging increased the oxygen consumption of miracidia of S. mansoni and the Japanese and Formosan strains of S. japonicum when

Origin and evolution of Schistosoma japonicum

Parasitology International, 2003
In his hypothesis on the coevolution of Asian schistosomes and snails, Davis implies that the ancestors of the Schistosoma japonicum and S. indicum species group were African and arrived in Asia via the Indian plate. This paper briefly reviews molecular phylogenetic relationships among species of the genus Schistosoma to test Davis' theory about the ...

Comparative Effects of Hycanthone in Schistosoma Mansoni and Schistosoma Japonicum

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1977
After in vitro hycanthone treatment followed by a 20-hour incubation in drug-free medium, Schistosoma mansoni were still resistant to labeling by a fluorescent analog of acetylcholine. S. japonicum, in contrast with the hycanthone sensitive species, showed prompt reversal of the blocking effects of hycanthone on fluorescent labeling.
