Schistosoma mansoni Activates Host Microvascular Endothelial Cells To Acquire an Anti-Inflammatory Phenotype

Since endothelial cells (ECs) play a key role in immune defense mechanisms and in immunopathology, we investigated whether the intravascular helminth parasite Schistosoma mansoni could interact with and activate resting ECs in vitro. Microscopic analysis revealed that the lung-stage schistosomula sp...
