Factors associated with Toxoplasma gondii infection in confined farrow-to-finish pig herds in western France: an exploratory study in 60 herds
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2016)
Background: Infection by Toxoplasma gondii postnatally can occur after ingestion of contaminated meat or water (tissue cysts/oocysts). In Europe, percentage of meat borne infections is estimated between 30 and 63 %, out ...
Granulopoiesis during acute Toxoplasma gondii infection in mice
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Fakultet veterinarske medicine, Beograd, 1997)
There is little evidence for the role of granulocytes in the host defence against the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the involvement of granulocytes during acute murine ...
Detection and genotyping of Toxoplasma gondii in wild canids in Serbia
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2019)
To gain insight into the population structure of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii in wildlife in Serbia, multiplex nested PCR- RFLP was performed on T. gondii DNA positive samples of heart tissue of three wild canid ...
Stage conversion of Toxoplasma gondii RH parasites in mice by treatment with atovaquone and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The mouse-virulent RH strain of Toxoplasma gondii is generally considered to have lost its cyst-forming capacity, and conversion of RH tachyzoites into cysts in non-immune mice has previously been shown exclusively following ...
Effectiveness of spiramycin in murine models of acute and chronic toxoplasmosis
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The antitoxoplasmic activity of spiramycin (SPI) was evaluated in murine models of infection using a type-1 (RH) or type-2 (Me49) strain of Toxoplasma gondii. In mice infected with 10(2) tachyzoites of the RH strain, ...
Animal reservoirs of Toxoplasma gondii : An update in France / Animaux réservoirs de Toxoplasma gondii: état des lieux en France
(Revue Francophone des Laboratoires, 2015)
Toxoplasmosis is a disease widely distributed throughout the world. It is caused by Toxoplasma gondii, a protozoan parasite, having the Felidae as final host (the cat) and warm-blooded vertebrates as intermediate hosts. ...
Cross-sectional survey on Toxoplasma gondii infection in cattle, sheep and pigs in Serbia: Seroprevalence and risk factors
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Toxoplasmosis is a globally distributed zoonosis with a clinical impact in the unborn fetus and in the immunosuppressed individual. In Serbia, studies of risk factors for Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans have shown ...
A human origin type II strain of Toxoplasma gondii causing severe encephalitis in mice
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Despite its capacity for sexual reproduction and global distribution, Toxoplasma gondii has a highly clonal structure, with the majority of isolates belonging to three distinct clonal types. Congenital toxoplasmosis has ...
In Vivo and In Vitro Virulence Analysis of Four Genetically Distinct Toxoplasma gondii Lineage III Isolates
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Toxoplasma gondii archetypes II and III are mildly virulent, yet virulence of variant strains is largely unknown. While lineage II dominates in humans in Europe, lineage III strains are present in various intermediate ...
Toxoplasma gondii genotypes circulating in domestic pigs in Serbia
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, Budapest, 2019)
Consumption of undercooked or raw pork is considered a significant risk factor for human infection with Toxoplasma gondii. In this study, we investigated the genetic structure of 18 T. gondii strains obtained from slaughter ...
