Trx4, a novel thioredoxin protein, is important for Toxoplasma gondii fitness (2024)
Journal Article

Background To successfully replicate within the host cell, Toxoplasma gondii employs several mechanisms to overcome the host cell defenses and mitigate the harmful effects of the free radicals resulting from its own metabolic processes using effector...

Global prevalence and risk factors associated with Toxoplasma gondii infection in wild birds: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2024)
Journal Article

A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to identify the global prevalence and factors associated with Toxoplasma gondii infection in wild birds. Six bibliographic databases (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Chinese Journal...

Expression profiles of host miRNAs and circRNAs and ceRNA network during Toxoplasma gondii lytic cycle (2024)
Journal Article

Toxoplasma gondii is an opportunistic protozoan parasite that is highly prevalent in the human population and can lead to adverse health consequences in immunocompromised patients and pregnant women. Noncoding RNAs, such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and cir... Read More about Expression profiles of host miRNAs and circRNAs and ceRNA network during Toxoplasma gondii lytic cycle.

An in silico and in vitro assessment of the neurotoxicity of mefloquine (2024)
Journal Article

Mefloquine (MQ) is a quinoline-based anti-malarial drug used for chemoprophylaxis or as treatment in combination with artesunate. Although MQ has clear anti-Plasmodium properties, it can induce neurotoxicity and undesired neuropsychiatric side effect...

The transcription factor AP2XI-2 is a key negative regulator of Toxoplasma gondii merogony (2024)
Journal Article

Sexual development in Toxoplasma gondii is a multistep process that culminates in the production of oocysts, constituting approximately 50% of human infections. However, the molecular mechanisms governing sexual commitment in this parasite remain poo...

Global prevalence of Plasmodium infection in wild birds: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2024)
Journal Article

Avian malaria is a vector-borne parasitic disease caused by Plasmodium infection transmitted to birds by mosquitoes. The aim of this systematic review was to analyze the global prevalence of malaria and risk factors associated with infection in wild...
