Rottlerin-mediated inhibition of Toxoplasma gondii growth in BeWo trophoblast-like cells
24 Apr 2017
Abstract excerpt
Autophagy is a crucial and physiological process for cell survival from yeast to mammals, including protozoan parasites. Toxoplasma gondii, an intracellular parasite, typically exploits autophagic machinery of host cell; however host cell upregulates autophagy to combat the infection.
