Résumé
Praziquantel (PZQ) is an anthelminthic human and veterinary drug used to treat trematode and cestode worms. Changes in immune responses have been demonstrated in humans following curative PZQ treatment of schistosome infections. These changes have been attributed to the removal of immunosupressive worms and immune responses to parasite antigens exposed from dying worms. To date, there has been no study investigating the potential direct effect of PZQ on the host immune cells. Herein, we analyzed the effect of PZQ on human CD4
