BACKGROUND: We have previously reported that progesterone (P(4)) has a direct in vitro effect on the scolex evagination and growth of Taenia solium cysticerci. Here, we explored the hypothesis that the P(4) direct effect on T. solium might be mediated by a novel steroid-binding parasite protein. MET...
