Experimental Schistosoma Japonicum-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension

C56. COW HOLLOW: PRECLINICAL MODELS OF PULMONARY HYPERTENSION, 2022
BackgroundSchistosomiasis, a major cause of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) worldwide, is most clearly described complicating infection by one species,Schistosoma mansoni. Controlled exposure of mice can be used to induce Type 2 inflammation-dependentS.mansonipulmonary hypertension (PH).

Photodynamic therapy of cancer‐associated infections

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Pathogens can be involved in tumor initiation, promotion and progression through different mechanisms, and their treatment can prevent new cancer cases, improve outcomes, and revert poor‐prognostic phenotypes. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) successfully treats different types of cancers and infections, and, therefore, has a unique potential to address ...

A prognostic model for Schistosoma japonicum infection-associated liver hepatocellular carcinoma: strengthening the connection through initial biological experiments

Infectious Agents and Cancer
Background Numerous studies have shown that Schistosoma japonicum infection correlates with an increased risk of liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). However, data regarding the role of this infection in LIHC oncogenesis are scarce. This study aimed to
