Pearson M, McManus D, Smyth D, Jones M, Sykes A, Loukas A
Parasitology . 2007 Aug; 134(Pt.14):2001-8. PMID: 17714602
A partial cDNA sequence was obtained from the human blood fluke, Schistosoma mansoni using a signal sequence trap approach. The full-length cDNA was cloned and termed Sm-7TM. The corresponding open...

Zhang W, Li J, Li Q, Yang D, Zhu B, You H, et al.
Clin Exp Immunol . 2007 Apr; 149(1):80-6. PMID: 17403055
An Echinococcus granulosus cDNA sequence coding for EpC1, a proven serodiagnostic marker for cystic echinococcosis (CE, hydatid disease), has high amino acid sequence identity to a paralogue from Taenia solium,...

McManus D, Dalton J
Parasitology . 2007 Feb; 133 Suppl:S43-61. PMID: 17274848
Schistosoma japonicum, Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica are digenetic trematodes and, therefore, possess similar life cycles. While schistosomiasis japonica has for a long time been recognised as a major disease...

Nakao M, McManus D, Schantz P, Craig P, Ito A
Parasitology . 2006 Dec; 134(Pt 5):713-22. PMID: 17156584
Taxonomic revision by molecular phylogeny is needed to categorize members of the genus Echinococcus (Cestoda: Taeniidae). We have reconstructed the phylogenetic relationships of E. oligarthrus, E. vogeli, E. multilocularis, E....

Gobert G, Chai M, McManus D
Parasitology . 2006 Nov; 134(Pt 4):453-60. PMID: 17109780
Past and more recent research has examined the ultrastructure, metabolism, cell biology, genomics and post-genomics of schistosome schistosomula. These areas are considered and discussed in this review with particular emphasis...

Yang Y, Williams G, Craig P, Sun T, Yang S, Cheng L, et al.
Trop Med Int Health . 2006 Jun; 11(6):880-8. PMID: 16772010
A comprehensive study of human echinococcosis (caused by Echinococcus granulosus or E. multilocularis), including assessment of hospital records, community surveys and patient follow-up, was conducted in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region...

Chai M, McManus D, McInnes R, Moertel L, Tran M, Loukas A, et al.
Cell Mol Life Sci . 2006 Mar; 63(7-8):919-29. PMID: 16570121
The schistosomulum is the main target of vaccine-induced protective immunity; however, most studies have utilized schistosomula produced by mechanical transformation of infective larvae followed by in vitro culture rather than...

Parasite Immunol . 2006 Jan; 28(3):77-84. PMID: 16441505
Schistosoma japonicum paramyosin, a 97 kDa myofibrillar protein, is a recognized vaccine candidate against schistosomiasis. To improve its expression and to identify protective epitopic regions on paramyosin, the published Chinese...
