A human Toxoplasma strain, isolated in mice from bioptic lymphoglandular tissue, has been cultured in vitro in continuous cell lines. Its presence in some parastized cells, with parasitophorous vacuoles surrounded by a cyst-like wall and filled with a cystozoite-like clone, was observed by electron microscopy. These characteristic and constant features were confined in different cell line cultures and are suggested as possible markers of low virulent strains.

Abstract

A human Toxoplasma strain, isolated in mice from bioptic lymphoglandular tissue, has been cultured in vitro in continuous cell lines. Its presence in some parastized cells, with parasitophorous vacuoles surrounded by a cyst-like wall and filled with a cystozoite-like clone, was observed by electron microscopy. These characteristic and constant features were confined in different cell line cultures and are suggested as possible markers of low virulent strains.
