Proteomic and transcriptomic analyses of early and late-chronic Toxoplasma gondii infection shows novel and stage specific transcripts
14 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The protozoan pathogen Toxoplasma gondii has the unique ability to develop a chronic infection in the brain of its host by transitioning from the fast growing tachyzoite morphology to latent bradyzoite morphology. A hallmark of the bradyzoite is the development of neuronal cysts that are resilient against host immune response and current therapeutics. The bradyzoite parasites within the cyst have a...
