Abstract

We studied the pathology of acute toxoplasmosis in experimental mice inoculated with RH strain tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii. All died from severe disseminated toxoplasmosis involving the liver, spleen and pancreas. Pathological features of acute toxoplasmosis in susceptible mice could be regarded as an excellent model for acute reactivation of Toxoplasma in the immunosuppressed host.
