During infection with Schistosoma mansoni the egg stage of this parasite modulates the initial T helper (Th1) response into a Th2 response. This suggests that schistosome eggs contain factors responsible for that effect. We have recently described a...

Shellfish are a common cause of food reactions in hypersensitive individuals and are among the eight foods that account for over 90% of food allergies. At present, the only way to prevent these serious consequences of food allergies is to avoid the f...
