© 2018, The Author(s). The role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) as vehicles for cell-to-cell communication between a tumour and its environment is a relatively new concept. The hypothesis that EVs may be critical in co-opting tissues by tumours to ge...

Acute Toxoplasma gondii infection in cats induced tissue-specific transcriptional response dominated by immune signatures (2018)
Journal Article
Cong, W., Dottorini, T., Khan, F., Emes, R. D., Zhang, F.-K., Zhou, C.-X., …Zhu, X.-Q. (2018). Acute Toxoplasma gondii infection in cats induced tissue-specific transcriptional response dominated by immune signatures. Frontiers in Immunology, 9, Article 2403. https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2018.02403

RNA-sequencing was used to detect transcriptional changes in six tissues of cats, seven days after T. gondii infection. A total of 737 genes were differentially expressed (DEGs), of which 410 were up-regulated and 327 were down-regulated. The liver e...

Background

The molecular structure of Fasciola gigantica 14-3-3 protein has been characterized. However, the involvement of this protein in parasite pathogenesis remains elusive and its effect on the functions of innate immune cells is unknown. We...
