%X the hypothesis that granuloma modulation and disease abatement in chronic infection with schistosoma japonicum could be ascribed to antibody-mediated effects on egg maturation and egg viability, arose from studies performed with mice in the philippines. this novel hypothesis has not yet been integrated into the schistosomiasis literature despite being formulated more than a decade ago. one reason for this is that the phenomenon might be confined to s. japonicum, even s. japonicum (philippines).
