Hidden association between Schistosoma mansoni and Ascaris lumbricoides infections
(Instituto de Ciências da Saúde/ Universidade Federal da BahiaBrasil, 2011-05)
Abstract
The parasitism by Ascaris lumbricoides tends to affect the course of human infection with Schistosoma mansoni on several
levels. At least two aspects were addressed in this communication: (1) the influence of the ...
Schistosoma mansoni antigen-driven interleukin-10 production in infected asthmatic individuals
(2006-10)
Asthmatics infected with Schistosoma mansoni have a less severe course of asthma and an inhibition of the Th2 inflammatory response that seems to be mediated by interleukin (IL-10). The objective of this study was to
evaluate ...
Interação entre Strongyloides venezuelensis e Schistosoma mansoni em camundongos da linhagem AKR/J
(Instituto de Ciências da Saúde/ Universidade Federal da Bahia, 2008-05)
Camundongos da linhagem AKR/J, experimentalmente infectados por Strongyloides venezuelensis, 45 dias após o
inóculo intraperitoneal de cercárias de Schistosoma mansoni, apresentaram uma diminuição de larvas recuperadas ...
Behavior of Schistosoma mansoni-induced histopathological lesions in Biomphalaria glabrata submitted to ionizing radiation
(2004)
O presente trabalho demonstra que a irradiação repetida, num total de 15.000 rads, resulta numa rápida supressão da eliminação das cercarias em caramujos infectados pelo Schistosoma mansoni. Inicialmente os esporocistos ...
Water-contact patterns and schistosoma mansoni infection in a rural community in northeast Brazil
(1987)
We evaluated the influence of water-related human activities, contaminative behaviour, house location, education and socio-economic status on endemic Schistosoma mansoni infection. The study was conducted in a hilry ...
Schistosoma mansoni Infection Modulates the Immune Response against Allergic and Auto-immune Diseases
(2004)
Chronic Schistosoma mansoni infection leads to a type 2-immune response with increased production of interleukin (IL-10). Evidence indicates chronic exposure to S. mansoni down regulates the type 1 immune response
and ...
Factors Associated with Resistance to Schistosoma mansoni Infection in an Endemic Area of Bahia, Brazil
(2012)
Detailed knowledge of factors associated with resistance to Schistosoma mansoni infection in endemic areas might facilitate more effective schistosomiasis control. We conducted a cross-sectional study of persons resistant ...
Identification of paramyosin T cell epitopes associated with human resistance to Schistosoma mansoni reinfection
(2005)
Paramyosin, a Schistosoma mansoni myoprotein associated with human resistance to infection and reinfection, is a candidate antigen to compose a subunit vaccine against schistosomiasis. In this study, 11 paramyosin peptides ...
Influence of the HLA-DQB1*0201 allele on the immune response in a Schistosoma mansoni infection
(2008)
We previously reported the association of the major histocompatibility complex class II HLA-DQB1*0201 allele with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis. The aim of this studywas to evaluate the cytokine responses of
peripheral ...
