Larval Schistosoma mansoni have been shown to induce morphological changes to the internal calcium reserves (in particular the calcareous inclusions in Type A calcium cells and to the inner, nacreous layer of the shell) of Biomphalaria glabrata within 48 h of miracidial penetration. Control experiments have shown that these changes were not due to either the experimental procedures used, mechanical damage or to starvation effects. The effects were, however, analogous to experimentally induced acidosis, suggesting that the rapidly transforming miracidium-sporocyst quickly induces changes in the host's metabolism, presumably by the production and release of CO2 and waste metabolites into the haemolymph.
