This work was devoted to clarify the changes in interleukin-1 (IL-1) activity of peritoneal macrophages in mice experimentally infected with S. mansoni before and after praziquantel administration. A significant increase in (IL-1) activity after praziquantel administration was detected. These findings clarify the role of praziquantel in improving the immune state of the infected host.
