A novel progesterone receptor membrane component (PGRMC) in the human and swine parasite Taenia solium: implications to the host-parasite relationship
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...
