Do mice genetically selected for resistance to oral tolerance provide selective advantage for Schistosoma mansoni infection?

Experimental parasitology - 1 Sept 2005

Abstract excerpt

A highly evolved relationship exists between the parasitic flatworm Schistosoma mansoni and its vertebrate hosts that include the use of host immune signals by parasites. The S. mansoni infection was studied in two strains of mice genetically selected, over 18 generations of assortative mating, for extreme phenotypes of susceptibility (TS) and resistance (TR) to immunological tolerance. The objective was to...
