Analysis of the Correlation Between Toxoplasma gondii Seropositivity and Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a multifactorial brain disorder and infectious diseases are considered as one of the predisposing factors for AD. Toxoplasma gondii, an obligate intracellular parasitic protozoan, is suspected of being associated with AD ...

Plasma Membrane Association by N-Acylation Governs PKG Function in Toxoplasma gondii
Cyclic GMP (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase G [PKG]) is essential for microneme secretion, motility, invasion, and egress in apicomplexan parasites, However, the separate roles of two isoforms of the kinase that are expressed by some ...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been a breakthrough in cancer therapy, inducing durable remissions in responding patients. However, they are associated with variable outcomes, spanning from disease hyperprogression to complete responses with the onset of immune‐related adverse events.

Computational Motility Tracking of Calcium Dynamics in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
Toxoplasma gondii is the causative agent responsible for toxoplasmosis and serves as one of the most common parasites in the world. For a successful lytic cycle, T. gondii must traverse biological barriers in order to invade host cells, and as such, motility is critical for its virulence. Calcium signaling, governed by fluctuations in cytosolic calcium

Advances in the Study of Pluripotent Stem Cells in Livestock
Livestock pluripotent stem cells include embryonic stem cells (ESCs) isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from somatic cell reprogramming. They hold significant potential for applications in livestock breed improvement, rapid propagation, human disease modelling and human organ ...

Selection at a single locus leads to widespread expansion of toxoplasma gondii lineages that are virulent in mice [PDF]
The determinants of virulence are rarely defined for eukaryotic parasites such as T. gondii, a widespread parasite of mammals that also infects humans, sometimes with serious consequences.

This article elaborates on the role of NK cells in early pregnancy from multiple perspectives, including molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions. It also discusses how NK cell dysfunction contributes to RSA and RIF, aiming to provide insights for future research on NK cell mechanisms and clinical treatment of RSA and RIF.

Unsupervised Discovery of Toxoplasma gondii Motility Phenotypes [PDF]
Toxoplasma gondii is a parasitic protozoan that causes dis- seminated toxoplasmosis, a disease that afflicts roughly a third of the worlds population. Its virulence is predicated on its motility and ability to enter and exit nucleated cells; therefore, studies elucidating its mechanism of motility and in particular, its motility patterns in the context
