Schistosomal pigment was studied by optical and electron microscopy in liver biopsies of patients with different clinical forms of schistosomiasis and in livers of mice experimentally infected with Schistosoma mansoni. Phagosomal and residual forms of the pigment are described. The quantity of pigment is low in subclinical and in hepatointestinal forms of schistosomiasis; it is high in young patients with the hepatosplenic form, and low in the old ones. The participation of the pigment in the pathogenesis of schistosomal lesions is discussed.
通过光学显微镜和电子显微镜对不同临床类型血吸虫病患者的肝活检组织以及实验感染曼氏血吸虫的小鼠肝脏中的血吸虫色素进行了研究。描述了色素的吞噬体形式和残余形式。在亚临床型和肝肠型血吸虫病中色素量较低；在肝脾型的年轻患者中色素量较高，而在老年患者中色素量较低。本文还讨论了色素在血吸虫病病变发病机制中的作用。
