Vacuolar and plasma membrane stripping and autophagic elimination of Toxoplasma gondii in primed effector macrophages
Apicomplexan protozoan pathogens avoid destruction and establish a replicative niche within host cells by forming a nonfusogenic parasitophorous vacuole (PV). Here we present evidence for lysosome-mediated degradation of Toxoplasma gondii after invasion of macrophages activated in vivo. Pathogen eli...
