  1. A potent HDAC inhibitor blocks Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoite growth and profoundly disrupts parasite gene expression

    • International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents
    • Toxoplasmosis is a major health issue worldwide especially for immune-deficient individuals and the offspring of newly infected mothers. It is caused by a unicellular intracellular parasite called Toxoplasma gondii. Although the drugs commonly used to treat toxoplasmosis are efficient, they present serious side effects and adverse events are common. Therefore, there is a need for the discovery of new compounds with potent anti-T. gondii activity.
