SummaryResearch on infectious agents as a possible cause of schizophrenia has become prominent in the past decade. Toxoplasma gondii has emerged as a prime candidate for a variety of reasons; (i) many studies have reported that individuals with schizophrenia, compared to controls, have a higher prevalence of antibodies to T.

Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that is a worldwide cause of infections in virtually all mammalian species, including humans. Although toxoplasmosis is extremely common in humans, most cases are subclinical and are revealed only by the presence of antibodies to this parasite. Prior to the

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1953
Summary Information on the biology of Toxoplasma has been summarized. Lack of host specificity, together with morphological and immunological criteria, indicate that the toxoplasmas of different hosts, avian and mammalian, are the same species, T. gondii. The manifestations of strain differences are discussed and data are presented on latent infections

Only felids shed fecal stages (oocysts) contaminating pastures, food, and water. Other warm-blooded vertebrates serve as paratenic hosts and are infected ingesting oocysts or other hosts containing tissue stages (bradyzoites). Pigs, sheep, goats, and chickens reared with access to oocyst contaminated soil produce the meats most likely to transmit the ...

This chapter analyzes toxoplasmosis, which is caused by the obligate intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii and is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality throughout the world. T. gondii has long been recognized as a serious congenital disease, but it was only with the advent of AIDS and the increased use of immunosuppressive therapy that

The nuclear division of Toxoplasma
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1973Abstract Toxoplasma gondii from infected chorio-allantoic membranes of chick embryos has been studied in smears and sections. Evidence of the occurrence of a certain form of nuclear division that is not typically mitotic has been shown to occur. Also schizont-like forms have been demonstrated to occur.

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1993
Recent advances in our understanding of the immunological mechanisms involved during infection with Toxoplasma gondii include evidence for the role of different subsets of lymphocytes and cytokines in acute infection as well as in reactivation of chronic infection. The mechanisms of presentation of T.

New Knowledge of Toxoplasma and Toxoplasma and Toxoplasmosis
1973Publisher Summary This chapter deals with the life cycle and morphology of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), epidemiology, animal toxoplasmosis, human toxoplasmosis, serology and immunology, biology, chemotherapy, and new knowledge of Sarcocystis. The most important advance during the past several years is that much has been learned about the life ...

Aggressive toxoplasma retinitis
Acta Ophthalmologica, 1992Abstract Toxoplasma infection is a common cause of infectious uveitis. It usually produces a characteristic fundal appearance, with evidence of previous inflammation. However, it may occur in an atypical and aggressive form. Steroids administered to salvage vision may then worsen the clinical course.
