Histoarchitecture of schistosomal granuloma development and involution: morphogenetic and biomechanical approaches

The authors present morphogenetic and biomechanical approaches on the concept of the Schistosoma mansoni granulomas, considering them as organoid structures that depend on cellular adhesion and sorting, forming rearrangement into hierarchical concentric layers, creating tension-dependent structures,...
