Innate, adaptive, and cell-autonomous immunity against Toxoplasma gondii infection
Experimental and Molecular Medicine, 2019 Hosts have been fighting pathogens throughout the evolution of all infectious diseases. Toxoplasma gondii is one of the most common infectious agents in humans but causes only opportunistic infection in healthy individuals.

Biogenesis and secretion of micronemes in Toxoplasma gondii
Cellular Microbiology, 2019 One of the hallmarks of the parasitic phylum of Apicomplexa is the presence of highly specialised, apical secretory organelles, called the micronemes and rhoptries that play critical roles in ensuring survival and dissemination.

Prenatal Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2011 (See the article by Boyer et al, on pages 1081–9.) One of the first lessons regarding congenital infections taught to third-year medical students on obstetrics and reinforced during their pediatric rotations are the variety and pathogenesis of perinatal viral and parasitic infections that can affect pregnant women and their fetuses. From the time of

High levels of congenital transmission of toxoplasma gondii in longitudinal and cross-sectional studies on sheep farms provides evidence of vertical transmission in ovine hosts [PDF]
, 2005 Recent research suggests that vertical transmission may play an important role in sustaining Toxoplasma gondii infection in some species. We report here that congenital transmission occurs at consistently high levels in pedigree Charollais and outbred ...
