Higher frequency of circulating Vδ1 γδT cells in patients with advanced schistosomiasis
Parasite Immunology, Volume 43, Issue 10-11, October/November 2021., 2021 Abstract Gamma‐delta (γδ) T cells are the bridge between natural and adaptive immunity. In the present study, peripheral blood was collected from 13 patients with advanced schistosomiasis (schistosomiasis group) and 13 uninfected people (control group) to investigate the γδ T cells and their subtypes in human schistosomiasis.

PAMAM-Lys, a novel vaccine delivery vector, enhances the protective effects of the SjC23 DNA vaccine against Schistosoma japonicum infection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 BACKGROUND: Schistosomiasis japonica remains a major public-health concern in China. Praziquantel-based chemotherapy effectively reduces both infections and intensity; however, it can not prevent re-infection.
