Toxoplasma Polymorphic Effectors Determine Macrophage Polarization and Intestinal Inflammation
European and North American strains of the parasite Toxoplasma gondii belong to three distinct clonal lineages, type I, type II, and type III, which differ in virulence. Understanding the basis of Toxoplasma strain differences and how secreted effectors work to achieve chronic infection is a major g...
