Toxoplasma gondii-induced host cellular cell cycle dysregulation is linked to chromosome missegregation and cytokinesis failure in primary endothelial host cells

Abstract excerpt

Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic and intracellular parasite with fast proliferating properties leading to rapid host cell lysis. T. gondii modulates its host cell on numerous functional levels. T. gondii was previously reported to influence host cellular cell cycle and to dampen host cell division. By using primary endothelial host cells, we show for the first time that T. gondii tachyzoite infections led to...
