Characterization of thioredoxin and glutathione reductase activities of Mesocestoides vogae, a flatworm parasite useful as a laboratory model for the screening of drugs.
Flatworm parasites (platyhelminths) cause serious infection diseases in humans, such as schistosomiasis and hydatid disease, mainly prevalent in developing countries. However, the current repertoire of drug armamentarium used to combat flatworm infections is limited. For instance, praziquantel is th...
