Altered purinergic P2X7 and A2B receptors signaling limits macrophage-mediated host defense in schistosomiasis

Altered purinergic P2X7 and A2B receptors signaling limits macrophage-mediated host defense in schistosomiasis

Background: The occurrence of co-infections during schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease, with other parasites have been reported suggesting an impaired host immune defense. Macrophage purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) plays an important role against intracellular pathogens. Therefore, we inv...
