Cytokine responses to Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma haematobium in relation to infection in a co-endemic focus in northern Senegal.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BackgroundIn Africa, many areas are co-endemic for the two major Schistosoma species, S. mansoni and S. haematobium. Epidemiological studies have suggested that host immunological factors may play an important role in co-endemic areas.

Praziquantel: its use in control of schistosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa and current research needs [PDF]

, 2009
Treatment with praziquantel (PZQ) has become virtually the sole basis of schistosomiasis control in sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere, and the drug is reviewed here in the context of the increasing rate that it is being used for this purpose. Attention is

Infection and co-infection with helminths and Plasmodium among school children in Côte d'Ivoire : results from a National Cross-Sectional Survey [PDF]

, 2014
Helminth infection and malaria remain major causes of ill-health in the tropics and subtropics. There are several shared risk factors (e.g., poverty), and hence, helminth infection and malaria overlap geographically and temporally.

Schistosoma mansoni: Insulin independence

Experimental Parasitology, 1989
Several authors have reported that schistosomes are affected by host hormones, including insulin. We found that insulin in a 10,000-fold range of concentrations failed to affect glucose consumption of males, females, or pairs of Schistosoma mansoni incubated for periods up to 24 hr.
