Development of Onchocerca volvulus in humanized NSG mice and detection of parasite biomarkers in urine and serum
BACKGROUND: The study of Onchocerca volvulus has been limited by its host range, with only humans and non-human primates shown to be susceptible to the full life cycle infection. Small animal models that support the development of adult parasites have not been identified. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDI...
