Type  MGI:General Description  following exposure to Schistosoma mansoni eggs, pulmonary granuloma lesions formation is delayed, granuloma size is reduced at early time points but increased at later time points, and clearance is delayed compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice at day 75 of S. mansoni infection, granulomas are composed of mononuclear cells unlike wild-type granulomas with epithelioid morphology S. mansoni egg-exposed mice exhibit reduced giant cells in granulomas until day 75 when giant cell formation is increased compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice S. mansoni egg-exposed mice exhibit granulomas with few or no macrophages unlike in similarly treated wild-type mice
