- Title
Antigen presentation: Parasite hijacking.
- Authors
Leavy, Olive
- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigates the interaction of host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) interacts with the parasitophorous vacuole (PV). It references a study by R.S. Goldszmid et al published in the January 19, 2009 issue of "Journal of Experimental Medicine." The interaction facilitates the retrotranslocation of exogenous antigens into the host cytoplasm. It also discusses the generated system designed to track antigen-specific T-cell responses to Toxoplasma gondii-derived antigens.
