Journal ArticleDOI

High-Resolution Typing of Toxoplasma gondii Using Microsatellite Loci

TL;DR: 6 new variable loci were described here, including a minisatellite and 5 microsatellites, that were more polymorphic than allozymes, restriction fragment length polymorphisms, and sequence variation in introns and revealed, for the first time, substantial within-lineage variation that was over 6-fold higher than that detected by other markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replication of Toxoplasma gondii, but Not Trypanosoma cruzi, Is Regulated in Human Fibroblasts Activated with Gamma Interferon: Requirement of a Functional JAK/STAT Pathway

TL;DR: The findings indicate the essential requirement of the JAK/STAT pathway for the induction of high levels of INDO mRNA, tryptophan degradation, and the anti-Toxoplasma activity inside human nonprofessional phagocytic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of cytokines and major histocompatibility complex restriction in mouse resistance to infection with a natural recombinant strain (type I-III) of Toxoplasma gondii.

TL;DR: The results indicate that resistance to cyst formation and toxoplasmic encephalitis induced during infection with P-Br is not primarily controlled by the MHC haplotype d, as previously reported for type II strains of T. gondii.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular microbiology — a research agenda and an emerging discipline

TL;DR: The aim of Cellular Microbiology is to provide a comprehensive forum for papers elucidating the biology of microbial±host cell interactions at the cellular and organismal levels to address questions related to the cellular, immunological and molecular process involved when two competing organisms meet and interact.
