Abstract Background Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by trematodes of the genus Schistosoma. The intravascular worms acquire the nutrients necessary for their survival from host blood. Since all animals are auxotrophic for riboflavin (vi

Abstract Schistosomiasis, also called bilharziasis, is a neglected tropical disease induced by schistosomes that infects hundreds of millions of people worldwide. In the life cycle of schistosomiasis, eggs are regarded as the main pathogenic factor,

The incidences of multiple sclerosis have risen worldwide, yet neither the trigger nor efficient treatment is known. Some research is dedicated to looking for treatment by parasites, mainly by helminths. However, little is known about the effect of h

Abstract Background The elimination of schistosomiasis remains a challenging task, with current measures primarily focused on the monitoring and control of Oncomelania hupensis (O. hupensis) snail, the sole intermediate host of Schistosome japonicum.

Schistosomes are intravascular parasitic worms infecting >200 million people globally. Here we examine how the worms acquire an essential nutrient - vitamin B2 (riboflavin). We demonstrate that all intravascular life stages (schistosomula, adult male

Although the mechanisms by which schistosomes grow and develop in humans are poorly defined, their unique outer tegument layer, which interfaces with host blood, is considered vital to homeostasis of the parasite. Here, we investigated the importance

The antischistosomal drug oxamniquine, OXA, requires activation by a sulfotransferase within the parasitic worm to enable killing. Examination of the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship for OXA identified an in vitro-in vivo paradox

IntroductionPraziquantel (PZQ), an anthelmintic drug discovered in the 1970s, is still used to treat schistosomiasis and various other infections caused by parasitic flatworms. PZQ causes a triad of phenotypic effects on schistosome worms – rapid d
