Inheritance of Schistosoma mansoni infection incompatibility in Biomphalaria alexandrina snails.
In this study, we looked at the inheritance of susceptibility and resistance to Schistosoma mansoni infection in the first generation of crossbred Biomphalaria alexandrina snails. Our ultimate goal is to use such information to develop a biological method of controlling schistosomiasis. We infected laboratory-bred snails with S. mansoni miracidia and examined cercarial shedding to determine sus...

متن کاملSchistosoma Mansoni Shares
The production of mAbs of various isotypes to Schistosoma mansoni has greatly contributed to the appreciation of the function of antibodies in the immunity against schistosomiasis, and has allowed the characterization of several potential protective antigens . Using this approach, we clearly established in previous studies (1, 2) the close relationship existing between a 38,000 Mr S. mansoni sc...
متن کاملSchistosoma mansoni Mucin Gene (SmPoMuc) Expression: Epigenetic Control to Shape Adaptation to a New Host
The digenetic trematode Schistosoma mansoni is a human parasite that uses the mollusc Biomphalaria glabrata as intermediate host. Specific S. mansoni strains can infect efficiently only certain B. glabrata strains (compatible strain) while others are incompatible. Strain-specific differences in transcription of a conserved family of polymorphic mucins (SmPoMucs) in S. mansoni are the principle ...
