Differential Expression of microRNAs in the Non-Permissive Schistosome Host Microtus fortis under Schistosome Infection
The reed vole Microtus fortis is the only mammal known in China in which the growth, development and maturation of schistosomes (Schistosoma japonicum) is prevented. It might be that the anti-schistosomiasis mechanisms of M. fortis associate with microRNA-mediated gene expression, given that the lat...
