Antagonistic effects of Schistosoma mansoni on superimposed Hymenolepis diminuta and H. microstoma infections in mice.
Patent, but not prepatent, Schistosoma mansoni infections in mice enhanced the expulsion of a superimposed infection with Hymenolepis diminuta. An antagonistic effect was also directed against a superimposed H. microstoma infection in mice harbouring patent S. mansoni infections.
