Protein undernutrition reduces the efficacy of praziquantel in a murine model of <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> infection

2022-02-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Undernutrition and schistosomiasis are public health problems and often occur in low and middle-income countries. Protein undernutrition can alter the host-parasite environment system and aggravate the course of schistosomiasis. This study aimed to assess the impact of a protein-deficient diet on the efficacy of praziquantel. <h4>Methodology/principal findings</h4> Thirty-day-old mice were fe...
