Gene Expression in Developmental Stages of <i>Schistosoma japonicum</i> Provides Further Insight into the Importance of the Schistosome Insulin-Like Peptide

We showed previously that the <i>Schistosoma japonicum</i> insulin-like peptide (SjILP) binds the worm insulin receptors, thereby, activating the parasite&#8217;s insulin pathway and emphasizing its important role in regulating uptake of glucose, a nutrient essential for parasite sur...
