Project description:This study provides a transcriptomic analysis of the oesophageal gland of S. mansoni male. The results obtained will help direct future research on the functional aspects of this tissue, and will allow the characterisation of currently unannotated genes in S. mansoni Quantification of gene expression of S. mansoni male oesophageal gland was achieved by a combination of laser microdissection microscopy (LMM) and oligonucleotide microarray analysis. We compared the gene expression profile of the adult male oesophageal glands with whole male worm controls.
