Hybridisations within the genus Schistosoma: implications for evolution, epidemiology and control [PDF]

, 2016
SUMMARYHybridization of parasites is an emerging public health concern in our changing world. Hybridization and introgression in parasites and pathogens can have major impacts on the host and the epidemiology and evolution of disease.

The evaluation of control measures against Schistosoma mekongi in Cambodia by a mathematical model [PDF]

, 2008
We constructed a mathematical model for the transmission of Schistosoma mekongi in Cambodia. The simulation of the model will be instrumental in planning schistosomiasis control measures.

Deficiency of PKCλ/ι alleviates the liver pathologic impairment of Schistosoma japonicum infection by thwarting Th2 response

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Background The activation of immune response driven by the eggs of Schistosoma japonicum and the subsequent secretions is the culprit behind granulomatous inflammation and liver fibrosis.
