Activity of the artemether in experimental schistosomiasis mansoni [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991 The action of the ether of artemisinin (artemether) on Schistosoma mansoni in mice and hamsters experimentally infected with the LE strain was studied. In mice, the drug showed high schistosomicidal activity using a single intramuscular dose of 100 mg/kg/day. By the oral route, this dose showed a low activity.

Pseudotumoral form of cerebral Schistosomiasis Mansoni [PDF]
Journal of Surgical Case Reports, 2012 The authors report a case of 36-year-old woman presented with epileptic seizures and headaches. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an enhancing lesion with surrounding edema and mild mass effect in the left frontal lobe. Stereotactic brain biopsy demonstrated intraparenchymal granulomas surrounding S. mansoni eggs. Praziquantel was started (60mg/

Endomyocardial fibrosis associated with mansoni schistosomiasis [PDF]
Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2011 Endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is a neglected tropical disease that affects millions of people worldwide. EMF is the most common cause of restrictive cardiomyopathy, caused by deposition of fibrous tissue on endocardial surfaces. EMF is a major cause of death in areas where it is endemic, but the pathogenesis of the disease is poorly understood ...

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 55, Issue 8, August 2025.During filarial nematode infection with Litomosoides sigmodontis, PD‐L2 down‐regulates Th2 cell expression of GATA‐3 and Th2 cytokines and enables parasite survival. Concurrently, B cells suppress protective immunity through a mechanism that does not involve PD‐L2.

Aminoisothiazolamides, a new class of potent inhibitors of lysyl‐tRNA synthetase
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 3956-3983, July 2025.The present work covers a series of novel herbicidal lead structures that possess an aminoisothiazolamide scaffold as a structural key feature. Lysyl‐tRNA synthetase 1 (KRS1) was identified as the biochemical mode‐of‐action. Based on optimized and tailored synthetic approaches, a broader SAR study was carried out delivering some lead structures that ...

A loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for early detection of Schistosoma mansoni in stool samples: a diagnostic approach in a murine model. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014 Human schistosomiasis, mainly due to Schistosoma mansoni species, is one of the most prevalent parasitic diseases worldwide. To overcome the drawbacks of classical parasitological and serological methods in detecting S.

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Background Esophageal varices (EV) are a fatal complication of cirrhosis. The guidelines suggest that esophageal varices should be diagnosed before bleeding in all patients. In patients with cirrhosis, the Child Turcotte Pugh (CTP) class has been used as a prognostic tool for variceal bleeding.
