Revisiting glucose uptake and metabolism in schistosomes: new molecular insights for improved schistosomiasis therapies
A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms required for schistosomes to take up glucose, the major nutritional source exploited by these blood flukes from their mammalian hosts, and the subsequent metabolism required to fuel growth and fecundity, can provide new avenues for developing novel...
