<i>Toxoplasma</i> infection alters dopamine-sensitive behaviors and host gene expression patterns associated with neuropsychiatric disease

2021-08-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Toxoplasma gondii is a single celled parasite thought to infect 1 in 3 worldwide. During chronic infection, T. gondii can migrate to the brain where it promotes low-grade neuroinflammation with the capacity to induce changes in brain morphology and behavior.
