TL;DR: Parts of phero-perception, stress responses, immune function and regulation of gene expression that support the persistence of B. glabrata are described and several potential targets for developing novel control measures aimed at reducing snail-mediated transmission of schistosomiasis are identified.

TL;DR: The results detected secreted proteins associated with invasion, infection, adhesion and immunoregulation processes as protease inhibitors and cytokines, among other functions that will contribute towards the understanding of host-parasite interactions and possibly identify new molecular targets for the treatment or diagnosis of helminthiases.

TL;DR: A computational integrative approach to predict host—parasite protein—protein interaction (PPI) networks resulting from the human infection by 15 different eukaryotic parasites using an orthology-based approach to transfer high-confidence intraspecies interactions obtained from the STRING database to corresponding interspecies homolog protein pairs in the host–parasites system.

TL;DR: Insight is provided into the evolution, classification, and functional diversification of cystatins in Schistosoma and other Platyhelminthes, improving the understanding of parasite biology and opening new frontiers in the identification of novel therapeutic targets against helminthiases.

TL;DR: This corrects the article DOI: 10.1038/ncomms15451 to indicate that the author of the paper is a doctor rather than a scientist, as previously reported.
