Toxoplasma gondii‐Derived Soluble Factors Induce G2/M Phase Accumulation and p53‐Associated Mitochondrial Apoptosis in Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 16, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Toxoplasma gondii infection poses potential risks to stem cell‐based therapeutic applications; however, the effects of parasite‐derived soluble factors on mesenchymal stem cells remain unclear. Here, we investigated the impact of T. gondii‐derived soluble factors (Tg‐SFs) on human umbilical cord‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC‐MSCs).

From Infection to Anxiety: A Sequential Model Linking Latent Toxoplasmosis to Psychological Distress via Health and Stress

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 1026-1043, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Identifying the drivers of chronic stress is crucial for understanding its impact on mental health. Latent toxoplasmosis, a widespread parasitic infection, has been linked to various psychological changes. The Stress‐Coping Hypothesis proposes that at least some of these changes are consequences of chronic stress arising from the infection's ...
