Acidocalcisomes in Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites.
Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites were loaded with the fluorescent indicator fura 2 to investigate the transport mechanisms involved in maintaining their intracellular Ca2+ homoeostasis. The mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor oligomycin and the endoplasmic-reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin increased the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), thus indicating the requirement for ATP and...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of Gamma-Irradiated Toxoplasma gondii Tachyzoites in Mice
The Immunogenicity of γ-irradiated tachyzoites of a highly virulent strain of Toxoplasma gondii (RH strain) was investigated. Immunized mice survived challenge infection and displayed increased interferon gamma (INF-γ ) production. On the other hand, nonimmunized controls died after 10 days and displayed a significantly decreased lymphoproliferative response to Concanavalin A (Con A). No tachyz...

For the past 40 years, the Toxoplasma Serology Laboratory at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation Research Institute (TSL-PAMFRI) has been dedicated to the laboratory diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii infection and toxoplasmosis. TSL-PAMFRI is the "brain child" of Jack S. Remington. Jack's ceaseless devotion to objectivity and uncompromising excellence has made TSL-PAMFRI the Toxoplasma reference labo...
متن کاملStudy of resistance to Toxoplasmosis using Tachizoites surface antigens of Toxoplasma gondii in vivo
Taoxoplasma gondii is an important food-borne parasite transmitted primarily from animals to humans through meat consumption, mainly pork and lamb, as well as through oocysts shed by cats. Infection in humans can cause severe fetal malformations, ocular complications or encephalitis. Toxoplasmosis infection during pregnancy, especially in sheep, often results in abortion, representing considera...
متن کاملProduction of MAG1 Antigen of Toxoplasma gondii in Escherichia coli
Introduction : Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic infection caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii it leads to serious medical problems in congenitally-infected and immunocompromised individuals, while it is quite harmless in immunocompetent individuals. Toxoplasma tissue cyst matrix protein (MAG1) induces early humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. Previous studies suggested recombinant M...
