Synergistic action of praziquantel and host specific immune response against Schistosoma mansoni at different phases of infection Ação sinergística do praziquantel e resposta imune específica do hospedeiro ao Schistosoma mansoni em diferentes fases da infecção
The interaction between specific immune response to Schistosoma mansoni and praziquantel (PZQ) was studied in mice.
