Decay accelerating factor (DAF) as the host antigen with protective activity to complement killing of schistosomula
The acquisition of host antigens by Schistosoma mansoni was studied by evaluating the resistance of schistosomula to the complement attack mediated by lethal antibody. Schistosomula cultured for 24 hours with intact human erythrocytes (N-HuE) or ghosts of any type of ABO or Rh blood group, showed a...
