Adverse impact of acute Toxoplasma gondii infection on human spermatozoa
Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites injected intraperitoneally crossed the blood‐testes barrier, appearing in testes/epididymis by day 6 post‐infection. In vitro exposure caused increased sperm necrosis/apoptosis and structural damage to heads/tails. Immunofluorescence and SEM revealed tachyzoites attaching to sperm tails, inducing twisting/detachment, and ...

Permission to bite: White‐footed mice show no increased grooming response to tick infestation
White‐footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) are one of the most frequently studied hosts of blacklegged ticks (Ixodes scapularis); however, interactions between white‐footed mice and ticks are not easily observed. This study aimed to quantify activity patterns in white‐footed mice and to assess their behavioral responses to parasitism by blacklegged ticks ...
