Alterations in peripheral blood B cell subsets and dynamics of B cell responses during human schistosomiasis.

Alterations in peripheral blood B cell subsets and dynamics of B cell responses during human schistosomiasis.

Antibody responses are thought to play an important role in control of Schistosoma infections, yet little is known about the phenotype and function of B cells in human schistosomiasis.
