The immunopathological characteristics of schistosomiasis in humans have also been the
subject of considerable investigation. Infected adults appear to modulate hepatic …

Immunopathogenesis in Schistosoma mansoni infection and modulation of the
granulomatous inflammation and amelioration of the disease state are discussed. Evidence …

Schistosoma infection is used as a model of a parasitic disease in which the major
pathological sequelae are immunologically mediated and where immunomodulation seems …

The essential pathology of Schistosomiasis japonicum, a chronic parasitic infection, is a
direct consequence of the host immune response to worm eggs trapped within the hepatic …

This review summarizes the current evidence that both the induction and amelioration of
disease in hepatosplenic schistosomiasis are immunologically mediated. We hypothesize …

Most available clinical and experimental data concern the immunology of Schistosomiasis
mansoni, which will be the focus of this report. The immune response against mature …

Most parasites survive only as long as their hosts remain alive. Disease and death in
schistosomiasis are essentially an accidental phenomenon in which schistosome eggs …

In schistosomiasis japonicum, the major pathologic lesion is the granulomatous
inflammation that occurs around parasite eggs trapped in the liver. The size of these …
