The outcome of acute schistosomiasis infection in adult mice with postnatal exposure to maternal malnutrition.

abstract：:There is no clear understanding of the outcome of reinfection in New World cutaneous leishmaniasis, and its role in the relationship to the development of protection or secondary disease. For this reason, reinfection experiments with homologous (Leishmania panamensis-L. panamensis) and heterologous (L. major-L. paname...
