Toxoplasma gondii manipulation in the host
 Dittrichová, Anna ; Langrová, Iva (advisor) ; Nechybová, Stanislava (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to collect so far discovered findings about manipulation of behaviour caused by Toxoplasma gondii. The first part of this thesis introduces basic characteristic of the parasite and toxoplasmosis, which is a disease caused exactly by this parasite. In the second part we summarize outcomes of many different scientific essays that deal with manipulation of intermediate host behaviour. Toxoplasma gondii is a widespread parasite that can modify the behaviour of the intermediate host, which can lead to serious changes in psychological profile of infected people. Toxoplasmosis is one of the most common zoonosis in the Czech Republic, the prevalence reaches 25-30 %. Toxoplasmosis is usually an asymptomatic infection, however it modifies the behaviour and acting of the intermediate host in some special situasions, it also changes excretion of important substances and affects the secondary sex ratio too. Toxoplasmosis is a very important risk especially for imunodeficit people and pregnant women. The principle of prevention is very strict personal and food hygiene.
