Quinupristin-dalfopristin is active against Toxoplasma gondii.
Synercid and each of its components (quinupristin and dalfopristin) were examined for their activities against Toxoplasma gondii. In vitro, intracellular replication of tachyzoites was inhibited by synercid and each of its two components. The 50% inhibitory concentrations of synercid, quinupristin, and dalfopristin were 1.6, 2.7, and 6.3 microg/ml, respectively. Thus, synercid was markedly more...

متن کاملVaccines against Toxoplasma gondii: challenges and opportunities.
Development of vaccines against Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans is of high priority, given the high burden of disease in some areas of the world like South America, and the lack of effective drugs with few adverse effects. Rodent models have been used in research on vaccines against T. gondii over the past decades. However, regardless of the vaccine construct, the vaccines have not been a...
