Abstract
An animal model for CNS infection by Apicomplexan parasites was produced by inoculating a homologous cell or other type of cell with the merozoite stage of the Apicomplexan parasite and inoculating the infected homologous cell or a cell line prepared therefrom back into the host from which it came. Such a model was used to develop drugs for treatment or prophylaxis, vaccines for protection from Apicomplexan diseases and diagnostic tests for determination active infection with Apicomplexan parasites.
