What do we know about receptor-mediated signalling pathways in parasitic platyhelminths Unfortunately, as a larger taxonomic group, we know very little. In-depth studies of the human blood fluke, 5. mansoni, have provided some of the most complete information on receptor-mediated signal transduction, and are summarized in the section on Transforming Growth Factor Receptor (TGFR) Pathway. ...
