Temporal transcriptome change of Oncomelania hupensis revealed by Schistosoma japonicum invasion

Cell & Bioscience, 2020
The freshwater snail Oncomelania hupensis is the obligate intermediate host for Schistosoma japonicum in China. Transcriptomic examination of snail–schistosome interactions can provide valuable information of host response at physiological and immune ...

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.

Opportunities and challenges for modelling epidemiological and evolutionary dynamics in a multihost, multiparasite system: Zoonotic hybrid schistosomiasis in West Africa [PDF]

, 2017
Multihost multiparasite systems are evolutionarily and ecologically dynamic, which presents substantial trans‐disciplinary challenges for elucidating their epidemiology and designing appropriate control.

Schistosoma japonicum extracellular vesicle miRNA cargo regulates host macrophage functions facilitating parasitism

PLoS Pathogens, 2019
Schistosome infection persists for decades. Parasites are in close contact with host peripheral blood immune cells, yet little is known about the regulatory interactions between parasites and these immune cells.

Proteomic and deep sequencing analysis of extracellular vesicles isolated from adult male and female Schistosoma japonicum

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Schistosomes are the causative agent of schistosomiasis, which affects more than 200 million people worldwide. Unlike other trematode parasites, schistosomes (along with the Didymozoidae) have evolved separate sexes.

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.

Geographical genetic structure of Schistosoma japonicum revealed by analysis of mitochondrial DNA and microsatellite markers

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Schistosoma japonicum is a significant public health risk in parts of China and elsewhere in Southeast Asia. To gain an insight into the epidemiology of schistosomiasis japonica, a detailed investigation of S.

Schistosoma japonicum cathepsin B2 (SjCB2) facilitates parasite invasion through the skin

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Cercariae invasion of the human skin is the first step in schistosome infection. Proteases play key roles in this process. However, little is known about the related hydrolytic enzymes in Schistosoma japonicum.

A role for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors in the immunopathology of schistosomiasis? [PDF]

, 2012
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) have been demonstrated to have a role in immune regulation. In general, they are anti-inflammatory and promote Th2 type responses, and they are associated with the alternative activation of macrophages.
