Abstract

Abstract: Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite, which infects warm-blooded animals including humans. T. gondii infection in the immune-competent individual is largely asymptomatic, but it can cause severe toxoplasmosis in immune-deficiency patients. T cell-mediated immunity plays an important role in resistance against T. gondii. Therefore, this review focuses on the progress of CD8+ T cell-mediated immune response to T. gondii infection.

Key words: Toxoplasma gondii infection, CD8+ T cell, Immune response
