MICE INFECTED WITH LOW-VIRULENCE STRAINS OF TOXOPLASMA GONDII LOSE THEIR INNATE AVERSION TO CAT URINE, EVEN AFTER EXTENSIVE PARASITE CLEARANCE.

Mice infected with low-virulence strains of Toxoplasma gondii lose their innate aversion to cat urine, even after extensive parasite clearance.

Toxoplasma gondii chronic infection in rodent secondary hosts has been nacrack.com reported to lead to a loss of innate, hard-wired fear toward cats, its primary host.However the generality of this response across T.gondii strains and the underlying mechanism for this pathogen-mediated behavioral change remain unknown.To begin exploring these quest
