Schistosoma japonicum infection induces macrophage polarization [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Biomedical Research, 2014
The role of macrophages (Mφ) as the first line of host defense is well accepted. These cells play a central role in orchestrating crucial functions during schistosomal infection. Thus, understanding the functional diversity of these cells in the process of infection as well as the mechanisms underlying these events is crucial for developing disease ...

Schistosoma japonicum Infection Leads to the Reprogramming of Glucose and Lipid Metabolism in the Colon of Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
The deposition of Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) eggs commonly induces inflammation, fibrosis, hyperplasia, ulceration, and polyposis in the colon, which poses a serious threat to human health. However, the underlying mechanism is largely neglected.

Prevalence of Schistosoma japonicum in bovines and Oncomelania hupensis quadrasi from ricefields surrounding Lake Mainit, Philippines

open access: yesJournal of Parasitic Diseases, 2021
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by blood flukes of the genus Schistosoma and involves bovines and snails as a reservoir and intermediate hosts, respectively. This disease is endemic in Lake Mainit, Philippines, as early as 1947.

Modelling environmentally-mediated infectious diseases of humans: transmission dynamics of schistosomiasis in China. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Macroparasites of humans are sensitive to a variety of environmental variables, including temperature, rainfall and hydrology, yet current comprehension of these relationships is limited.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Bionomik Schistosoma japonicum pada Mencit (Mus musculus) di Laboratorium

open access: yesJurnal Vektor Penyakit, 2017
Schistosomiasis is still a public health problem in endemic areas. Schistosomiasis in Indonesia was distributed in Napu, Lindu, and Bada Highlands. Schistosomiasis control was complex because so many aspect were related with schistosoma life cycle.

Functional characterisation of Schistosoma japonicum acetylcholinesterase [PDF]

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2016
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is an important metabolic enzyme of schistosomes present in the musculature and on the surface of the blood stage where it has been implicated in the modulation of glucose scavenging from mammalian host blood. As both a target for the antischistosomal drug metrifonate and as a potential vaccine candidate, AChE has been ...

Testicular schistosomiasis mimicking tumour

open access: yesInternational Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2004
Schistosomiasis or bilharziasis is a disease caused by Schistosoma. When infecting men the most common parasites are Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma japonicum and Schistosoma haematobium.

One Health – an Ecological and Evolutionary Framework for tackling Neglected Zoonotic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Understanding the complex population biology and transmission ecology of multihost parasites has been declared as one of the major challenges of biomedical sciences for the 21st century and the Neglected Zoonotic Diseases (NZDs) are perhaps the most ...

Alterations of Gut Microbiome and Metabolite Profiling in Mice Infected by Schistosoma japonicum

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) is one of the etiological agents of schistosomiasis, a widespread zoonotic parasitic disease. However, the mechanism of the balanced co-existence between the host immune system and S.
