A single-cell atlas of the miracidium larva of the human blood fluke <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> : cell types, developmental pathways and tissue architecture
2023-03-27
Abstract excerpt
Schistosomes are parasitic flatworms that cause the water-borne disease schistosomiasis, affecting millions of people worldwide. The miracidium larva of schistosomes represents the first post-embryonic stage of development and is critical to transmission. After hatching, a miracidium infects a freshwater snail and transforms into a mother sporocyst, where its stem cells generate daughter sporocysts that give rise...
