Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by blood flukes (trematodes), including species of Schitosomiasis japonicum, mekongi and mansoni were parasited in portal vein and mesentery vein system. The big difference is admitted that the clinical condition of liver fibrosis by 3 kinds of this schistosome infection, but the true condition doesn't become clear. There are no effective treatments to liver fibrosis except to inhibit to infection in the present state. It is necessary for early diagnosis of liver fibrosis and need to perform Praziquantel treatment immediately, although tool of diagnose is established yet. So the clinical condition analysis using infection of 3 kinds of schistosome by a mouse model, I aimed at manifested profiling of microRNA of an endoplasmic reticulum in the serum, did a comparative analysis and tried explication of the different clinical condition as well as considered a possibility as the biomarker that a clinical condition change is detected.
