Starvation of low-density lipoprotein-derived cholesterol induces bradyzoite conversion in Toxoplasma gondii
BACKGROUND: Lacking enzymes for sterol synthesis, the intracellular protozoan Toxoplasma gondii scavenges cholesterol from host cells to multiply. T. gondii has a complex life cycle consisting of two asexual stages; the proliferative stage (tachyzoite), and the latent stage characterized by tissue c...
