Toxoplasma gondii major surface antigen (SAG1): in vitro analysis of host cell binding [PDF]

, 2004
Previous studies have indicated that SAG1, the major surface molecule of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii, is an important attachment ligand for the host cell.

Toxoplasma gondii Hsp70 as a danger signal in Toxoplasma gondii-infected mice

Cell Stress & Chaperones, 2000
Toxoplasma gondii Hsp70, T gondii Hsp30/bag1, and surface antigen 1 messenger RNAs were shown to be useful in analyzing stage conversion of T gondii between bradyzoites and tachyzoites. The high-level expression of T gondii Hsp70 was correlated with mortality in interferon-gamma knockout mice infected with T gondii.

Steroid‐responsive generalised sterile necrotising pyogranulomatous lymphadenitis in a cat

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
A 1.5‐year‐old neutered male cat was presented with fever, inappetence, lethargy and marked generalised lymphadenopathy of 4 days duration. Excisional biopsy of peripheral lymph nodes revealed necrotising pyogranulomatous lymphadenitis. Extensive investigation failed to identify an underlying infectious [bacterial (Bartonella, Mycobacteria, Mycoplasma,

Toxoplasma gondii Infection in the United States, 2011-2014.

American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2017
Toxoplasma gondii can cause severe neurologic and ocular disease when transmitted congenitally and in immunosuppressed persons. Sera collected in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011 through 2014 in 13,507 persons ≥ 6 years old were ...

Juvenile Dermatomyositis Triggered by Influenza B: A Case Report on Viral‐Induced Autoimmunity

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A previously healthy 13‐year‐old boy developed juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) shortly after a confirmed influenza B infection, presenting with progressive proximal muscle weakness and classic cutaneous findings. Laboratory tests revealed elevated muscle enzymes and myositis‐specific autoantibodies, supporting the diagnosis.

Is Toxoplasma Gondii Infection Related to Brain and Behavior Impairments in Humans? Evidence from a Population-Representative Birth Cohort

PLoS ONE, 2016
Background Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is a protozoan parasite present in around a third of the human population. Infected individuals are commonly asymptomatic, though recent reports have suggested that infection might influence aspects of the host’s ...

Mitochondrial behaviour throughout the lytic cycle of Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

, 2017
Mitochondria distribution in cells controls cellular physiology in health and disease. Here we describe the mitochondrial morphology and positioning found in the different stages of the lytic cycle of the eukaryotic single-cell parasite Toxoplasma gondii.

CD40, autophagy and Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009
Toxoplasma gondii represents a pathogen that survives within host cells by preventing the endosomal-lysosomal compartments from fusing with the parasitophorous vacuoles. The dogma had been that the non-fusogenic nature of these vacuoles is irreversible. Recent studies revealed that this dogma is not correct.

Simulation model to estimate the burden of disease due to hepatitis E virus in Dutch pig meat and cost‐effectiveness of control measures

Risk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract Hepatitis E virus (HEV) can lead to liver disease in humans. In the Netherlands, the consumption of pig meat is thought to be the main contributor to the total burden of disease caused by HEV. In this study, the number of cases and lost disability‐adjusted‐life‐years (DALYs) due to HEV in pig meat were estimated by simulating HEV through the ...
