The phylogeography of Asian Schistosoma (Trematoda: Schistosomatidae)
Parasitology, 2002 Partial (DNA) sequences are presented for 2 nuclear (18S and 28S rRNA genes) and 2 mitochondrial (12S rRNA and ND1 genes) loci for 5 species belonging to the Schistosoma japonicum, S. sinensium and S. indicum groups of Asian Schistosoma. Fresh field isolates were collected and cultured for the following taxa: S. incognitum (S.

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 Macrophages are highly plastic innate immune cells that adopt an important diversity of phenotypes in response to environmental cues. Helminth infections induce strong type 2 cell‐mediated immune responses, characterized among other things by production of high levels of interleukin‐ (IL‐) 4 and IL‐13.

Three new species of blood flukes (Digenea: Aporocotylidae) infecting pufferfishes (Teleostei: Tetraodontidae) from off Bali, Indonesia [PDF]
, 2016 We describe three new species of blood flukes (Aporocotylidae) and propose their classification within the genus Psettarium Goto & Ozaki, 1929. All three species were collected from the circulatory systems of pufferfishes caught off Bali, central ...

Mitochondrial and nuclear ribosomal DNA dataset supports that Paramphistomum leydeni (Trematoda: Digenea) is a distinct rumen fluke species [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Rumen flukes parasitize the rumen and reticulum of ruminants, causing paramphistomiasis. Over the years, there has been considerable debate as to whether Paramphistomum leydeni and Paramphistomum cervi are the same or distant species. METHODS:

New Frontiers in Schistosoma Genomics and Transcriptomics
Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Schistosomes are digenean blood flukes of aves and mammals comprising 23 species. Some species are causative agents of human schistosomiasis, the second major neglected disease affecting over 230 million people worldwide. Modern technologies including the sequencing and characterization of nucleic acids and proteins have allowed large‐scale analyses of

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 The effects of snail density on Biomphalaria alexandrina parasitized with Schistosoma mansoni were investigated. Laboratory experiments were used to quantify the impact of high density on snail growth, fecundity, and survival. Density‐dependent birth rates of snails were determined to inform mathematical models, which, until now, have assumed a linear ...

Environmental DNA-based xenomonitoring for determining Schistosoma presence in tropical freshwaters
Parasites & Vectors, 2020 Background Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease that infects over 200 million people worldwide. Control measures can benefit from improved surveillance methods in freshwaters, with environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys having the potential to offer
