This study creates a single-cell atlas of Toxoplasma sexual development in cats, identifying AP2X6 as a regulator of macrogametocyte development.

This study shows that Toxoplasma gondii infection redirects placental trophoblast lineage specification, promoting infection-permissive cells over infection-resistant ones.

This study uses human trophoblast stem cells to model placental resistance to Toxoplasma gondii and Listeria monocytogenes, showing that syncytiotrophoblasts are more resistant than cytotrophoblasts.

This paper uses third-generation sequencing to revise the molecular karyotype of Toxoplasma gondii, identifying chromosome fusions and copy number variants in sexual recombinants.

The paper uses RNA-seq to compare transcriptional profiles of neurons infected with Toxoplasma gondii, bystander neurons, and controls, finding immune cell transcripts enriched in infected neurons.
