Infection control in the brain and the eye

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page e478-e490, August 2026.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

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).

Investigation of Specific IgG‐Secreting Cells in Congenital Toxoplasmosis: The TOXODIAG Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 14, July 2026.
This study addressed the difficulty of establishing a postnatal biological diagnosis of congenital toxoplasmosis, particularly in the absence of toxoplasmosis monitoring during pregnancy, as is the case in many countries. Our work presents an ELISPOT (Enzyme‐Linked Immunospot) method adapted for the detection of B lymphocytes primed to produce IgG ...

Gene Panel Analysis Reveals Overlapping Genetic Causes of Inherited Cataracts and Other Ocular Phenotypes in Bulgarian Patients

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
We have identified 4 pathogenic/likely pathogenic changes and 2 variants of uncertain significance, 3 of which were novel. The identification of disease‐causing variants in the CRYAA, MYH9, RP2, and CLNC1 genes allowed us to establish an accurate genetic diagnosis of inherited cataract and to describe overlapping clinical phenotypes.

Occurrence and Risk Factors of Toxoplasma gondii Infection in Tigers (Panthera tigris) in Thailand: Influence of Age and Sex

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study investigated Toxoplasma gondii specific antibodies in 135 captive tigers across seven Thai tiger parks using latex agglutination. Results revealed a high overall positivity rate of 42.96%. Ordinal logistic regression analysis demonstrated sex and age were significant risk factors, with females (OR = 20.13) and older tigers (OR = 1.91 ...

Clinical Toxoplasmosis in Dogs and Cats: An Update

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
Toxoplasmosis is caused by the globally distributed protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii (phylum Apicomplexa); the disease can be clinically important for almost all homeothermic animals, including birds and humans.
