Fucosyltransferases in Schistosoma mansoni development [PDF]
Glycoconjugate-bound fucose, abundant in the parasite Schistosoma mansoni, has been found in the form of Fucalpha1,3GlcNAc, Fucalpha1,2Fuc, Fucalpha1,6GlcNAc, and perhaps Fucalpha1,4GlcNAc linkages. Here we quantify fucosyltransferase activities in three developmental stages of S. mansoni.

Imatinib activity on Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]
Imatinib, a drug used for treatment of human chronic myeloid leukaemia, due to its activity against protein kinases, has been also evaluated in vitro against Schistosoma mansoni showing high schistosomicidal activity. In the present experiments imatinib activity in vitro was confirmed at the doses of 25 µM, 50 µM and 100 µM.
