Pathogenesis of Schistosoma mansoni infection [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
In this paper a discussion is made on the pathogenesis of schistosomiasis mansoni in mice, presented from the perspectives of "processes", "mediators", "strategies for study" and "disease". These concepts overlap considerably. Regarding "processes", granulomas, fibrosis and vasculitis are discussed.

Evidence for Integrin – Venus Kinase Receptor 1 Alliance in the Ovary of Schistosoma mansoni Females Controlling Cell Survival [PDF]

, 2017
Parasites of the genus Schistosoma cause schistosomiasis, a life-threatening infectious disease for humans and animals worldwide. Among the remarkable biological features of schistosomes is the differentiation of the female gonads which is controlled by ...

A survey of the prevalence of Schistosomiasis among pupils in Apata and Laranto areas in Jos, Plateau State [PDF]

, 2004
Prevalence of Schistosomiasis in apparently healthy primary school pupils in Apata and Laranto areas of Jos was surveyed using 300 samples of stool and 300 samples of urine.

Remote Control of Eukaryotic Gene Expression by a Modular Ultrasound‐Responsive RNA Toolkit

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A modular RNA‐based sonogenetic toolkit enables remote control of gene expression in eukaryotes by releasing small molecule modulators from ultrasound‐responsive carriers. These modulators activate engineered mRNA elements such as riboswitches, leading to tunable protein expression.

Characterization, cloning and immunogenicity of antigens released by lung-stage larvae of Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]

, 1999
Lung-stage schistosomula are the target of protective immunity in mice vaccinated with attenuated cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni. Therefore, proteins present at this developmental stage, and in particular those which are secreted, are a potential ...

Green Propolis Extract‐Mediated Synthesis of Biogenic Silver Nanoparticles: In Vitro Antileishmanial and Antibacterial Activities, Cytotoxicity and Ex Vivo Irritation Testing

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study describes the green synthesis, characterization, and biological evaluation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) obtained from green propolis (AgNPs‐PRO). Before nanoparticles synthesis, a hydroethanolic green propolis extract (GPE) was obtained through ultrasound‐assisted extraction and characterized by high‐performance liquid ...

Patterns of gene expression in schistosomes: localization by whole mount in situ hybridization [PDF]

, 2007
rom the identification of genes to the characterization of their functions and interactions. Developmental biologists have long used whole mount in situ hybridization (WISH) to determine gene expression patterns, as a vital tool for formulating and ...

Synthesis of Rhamnose‐Modified Lewis‐X‐Containing Saponins

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
The synthesis of triterpenoid saponins bearing a Lewis‐X trisaccharide analogue, in which the fucose residue is replaced by a rhamnose, is presented. These saponins, designed as negative controls in dendritic cell‐specific intercellular adhesion molecule‐3‐grabbing nonintegrin‐targeted therapeutic applications, are prepared through iterative and ...

A PAL for Schistosoma mansoni PHM [PDF]

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2010
Parasitic helminth neuromuscular function is a proven target for chemotherapeutic control. Although neuropeptide signalling plays a key role in helminth motor function, it has not yet provided targets for known anthelmintics. The majority of biologically active neuropeptides display a C-terminal amide (NH(2)) motif, generated exclusively by the ...
