“…Infection can cause partial or total disruption of oviposition and egg hatching, in addition to biochemical and histopathological changes, leading to a reduction in the population of infected snails (Faro et al, 2013;Guerino et al, 2017). Regarding infection, these effects have been studied in models such as Biomphalaria glabrata (Say, 1818) infected by Schistosoma mansoni (Sambon, 1907) (Minchella and Loverde, 1981;Vasconcellos and Schall, 1986;Lima, 2010;Faro et al, 2013;Alberto-Silva et al, 2015); B. glabrata infected by Echinostoma paraensei Lie andBasch, 1967 (Tunholi et al, 2011), B. glabrata co-infected by E. paraensei and Angiostrongylus cantonensis (Chen, 1935) (Bonfim et al, 2014;Garcia, 2014); B. glabrata infected by A. cantonensis (Tunholi-Alves et al, 2011); Biomphalaria straminea (Dunker, 1848) and Biomphalaria tenagophila (D'Orbigny, 1835) infected by A. cantonensis (Lima et al, 2017) and Bulimulus tenuissimus (D'Orbigny, 1935) infected by Angiostrongylus cantonensis (Martins et al, 2019).…”
