Contrasting reservoirs for Schistosoma japonicum between marshland and hilly regions in Anhui, China--a two-year longitudinal parasitological survey. [PDF]
Schistosoma japonicum remains highly endemic in many counties in China and has recently re-emerged, to a large extent, in previously controlled areas. To test the hypothesis that small rodents and less agriculturally important domestic animals such as ...

Schistosoma japonicum EKLF/KLF1 is a potential immune target to tackle schistosomiasis
Background Interruption of parasite reproduction by targeting migrating schistosomula is a promising strategy for managing schistosomiasis. Hepatic schistosomula proteins previously identified based on second-generation schistosome DNA sequencing were ...

Human susceptibility to Schistosoma japonicum in China correlates with antibody isotypes to native antigens [PDF]
Antibody isotypic responses (IgE, IgA, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4) to Schistosoma japonicum antigens—adult worm (AWA), soluble egg (SEA) and the recombinant proteins TEG (22·6-kDa tegumental antigen, Sj22) and PMY (paramyosin, Sj97)—were measured (in 1998)
