Toxoplasmosis, one of the most common parasitic invasions worldwide, may pose a great threat for individuals with weakened immune system. The parasite also causes considerable economic losses due to infection of livestock. To date there is no efficient immunoprophylaxis for humans and animals, which would provide long-lasting protection against T. gondii invasion. Chimeric proteins, containing several selected fragments of parasite antigens important in the host cell invasion, offer a new approach to anti-Toxoplasma vaccine development. The aim of the study was to evaluate the immunogenic and protective activity of Toxoplasma gondii fusion proteins as potential immunoprophylactic tools.
