Abstract
Investigates the contribution of B cells to the maturation of the parasite Schistosoma mansoni within its mammal host and the development of the T-cellular immune response during a primary infection. Lack of relationship between the absence of B cells and the development of the parasites; Similarity between infection of B-cell-deficient mice with S. mansoni and B-cell-intact mice.
