Strain-specific pre-existing immunity: A key to understanding the role of chronic Toxoplasma infection in cognition and Alzheimer's diseases?
8 Apr 2022
Abstract excerpt
Toxoplasma exposure can elicit cellular and humoral immune responses. In the case of chronic Toxoplasma infection, these immune responses are long-lasting. Some studies suggest that pre-existing immunity from Toxoplasma infection can shape immune responses and resistance to other pathogens and brain insults later in life. Much evidence has been generated suggesting Toxoplasma infection may contribute to cognitive...
