Behavior of Neutrophil Granulocytes during Toxoplasma gondii Infection in the Central Nervous System

Behavior of Neutrophil Granulocytes during Toxoplasma gondii Infection in the Central Nervous System

Cerebral toxoplasmosis is characterized by activation of brain resident cells and recruitment of specific immune cell subsets from the periphery to the central nervous system (CNS). Our studies revealed that the rapidly invaded Ly6G+ neutrophil granulocytes are an early non-lymphoid source of interf...
