Schistosoma japonicum extracellular vesicle proteins serve as effective biomarkers for diagnosing parasite infection

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Schistosoma species are the causative agent of schistosomiasis and shows worldwide distribution. There is a great need to develop a sensitive diagnostic approach for controlling the disease.

Anti-embryonation immunity in murine schistosomiasis japonica (Philippines)

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1995
The hypothesis that granuloma modulation and disease abatement in chronic infection with Schistosoma japonicum could be ascribed to antibody-mediated effects on egg maturation and egg viability, arose from studies performed with mice in the Philippines ...

The genetic variation of different developmental stages of Schistosoma japonicum: do the distribution in snails and pairing preference benefit the transmission?

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Schistosoma japonicum is a waterborne parasite that causes schistosomiasis in humans and in more than 40 animal species. Schistosoma japonicum shows distinct genetic differentiation among geographical populations and multiple hosts, but the ...

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry for differential identification of adult Schistosoma worms

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background Schistosomiasis is a major neglected tropical disease that affects up to 250 million individuals worldwide. The diagnosis of human schistosomiasis is mainly based on the microscopic detection of the parasite’s eggs in the feces (i.e., for ...

The strain specificity of vaccination with ultraviolet attenuated cercariae of the Chinese strain of Schistosoma japonicum [PDF]

, 1985
Mice vaccinated with ultra violet (u.v.) attenuated cercariae of the Chinese mainland strain of S. japonicum were resistant to homologous challenge, but were not resistant to challenge with the Philippine strain of S. japonicum.
