    New study shows how Toxoplasma parasite evolved to adapt to crowded conditions in host cells

    2026-08-12T10:17:00Z By Linda Stewart

    How Toxoplasma reshapes its metabolism to keep growing under crowded conditions in a tissue cyst has been unclear. A new study identifies a parasite-specific protein that helps coordinate this response, allowing Toxoplasma to manage oxidative stress.
