The role of clathrin in post-golgi trafficking in toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
Apicomplexan parasites are single eukaryotic cells with a highly polarised secretory system that contains unique secretory organelles (micronemes and rhoptries) that are required for host cell invasion.

Toxoplasma gondii infects almost all warm-blooded animals, and metabolic flexibility is deemed critical for its successful parasitism in diverse hosts. Glucose and glutamine are the major carbon sources to support parasite growth. In this study, we found

Significant familial differences in the frequency of abortion and Toxoplasma gondii infection within a flock of Charollais sheep [PDF]
A study was carried out to investigate the frequencies of abortion and congenital Toxoplasma gondii infection within 27 families (765 individuals) of a pedigree Charollais sheep flock maintained on a working farm in Worcestershire, UK, since 1992 ...

The ultrastructure of Toxoplasma gondii
Electron microscopy has been an important tool for understanding the biology and ultrastructure of Toxoplasma gondii. As an obligate intracellular parasite, T. gondii has evolved specialized organelles for invasion and successful intracellular parasitism.

Toxoplasma gondii: Biological Parameters of the Connection to Schizophrenia
It is increasingly evident that the brain is not truly an immune privileged site and that cells of the central nervous system are sensitive to the inflammation generated when the brain is fighting off infection.

Toxoplasma and Plasmodium protein kinases: roles in invasion and host cell remodelling [PDF]
Some apicomplexan parasites have evolved distinct protein kinase families to modulate host cell structure and function. Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry protein kinases and pseudokinases are involved in virulence and modulation of host cell signalling.

SummaryIsolation and characterization of toxoplasma RNA revealed a ribosomal species which could be easily differentiated from mammalian host cell RNA. A species of transfer RNA also appeared to differ from that of the host cell. Extracellular toxoplasma were capable of incorporating 3H-uridine into the major components of their RNA.

Can Oral Swabs Be Used to Diagnose Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Cervicofacial Lymphadenitis?
ABSTRACT Objective We investigated the presence of mycobacteria in the oral cavity and oropharynx of children with nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) cervicofacial lymphadenitis compared to negative controls. Our aim was to evaluate whether oral cavity and oropharyngeal swab sampling could serve as a minimally invasive alternative to diagnostic ...
