30 kwi 2018 · Neuro-parasitology is an emerging branch of science that deals with parasites that can control the nervous system of the host. It offers the possibility of discovering how one species (the parasite) modifies a particular neural network, and thus particular behaviors, of another species (the host).
1 sty 2013 · What T. gondii does to manipulate its rodent host is highly germane, as it appears to be doing the same thing in human brains. Papers in this issue present evidence that T. gondii also alters human behaviour and may be involved in the etiology of serious mental disorders such as schizophrenia.
21 sie 2023 · This review focuses less on the diseases that neuroparasites induce and more on the process of their neurological manipulation. We also investigate the fundamental mechanisms of host manipulation in the developing field of neuroparasitology, which blends neuroscience and parasitology.
