Schistosoma mansoni venom allergen like proteins present differential allergic responses in a murine model of airway inflammation.
BACKGROUND: The Schistosoma mansoni Venom-Allergen-Like proteins (SmVALs) are members of the SCP/TAPS (Sperm-coating protein/Tpx-1/Ag5/PR-1/Sc7) protein superfamily, which may be important in the host-pathogen interaction. Some of these molecules were suggested by us and others as potential immunomo...
