Transcriptome analysis of peripheral blood of <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> infected children from the Albert Nile region in Uganda reveals genes implicated in fibrosis pathology

2023-06-13

Abstract excerpt

Over 290 million people are infected by schistosomes worldwide. Schistosomiasis control efforts focus on mass drug treatment with praziquantel (PZQ), a drug that kills the adult worm of all Schistosoma species. Nonetheless, re-infections have continued to be detected in endemic areas with individuals living in the same area presenting with varying infection intensities. Our objective was to characterize the trans...
