Pathology and molecular mechanisms of Schistosoma japonicum-associated liver fibrosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Schistosomiasis has been widely disseminated around the world, and poses a significant threat to human health. Schistosoma eggs and soluble egg antigen (SEA) mediated inflammatory responses promote the formation of egg granulomas and liver fibrosis. With

The Potential Role of MicroRNA‐124‐3p in Growth, Development, and Reproduction of Schistosoma japonicum

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
The microRNA‐124‐3p plays an important role in regulating development and neurogenesis. Previous microRNA sequencing analyses of Schistosoma japonicum revealed sja-miR-124-3p differential expression patterns in schistosomes from different hosts and at ...

cGAS exacerbates Schistosoma japonicum infection in a STING-type I IFN-dependent and independent manner

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2022
Schistosomiasis, which is caused by infection with Schistosoma spp., is characterized by granuloma and fibrosis in response to egg deposition. Pattern recognition receptors are important to sense invading Schistosoma, triggering an innate immune response,

Alteration of the fecal microbiota in Chinese patients with Schistosoma japonicum infection

open access: yesParasite, 2021
Schistosoma japonicum infection causes pathological injury to the host. Multiple studies have shown that intestinal helminth infection causes dysbiosis for the gut microbial community and impacts host immunology. However, the effect of acute S. japonicum
