High Prophylactic Efficacy of Thymol Loaded Chitosan Nanoparticles for Controlling Acute Toxoplasmosis in Mice
The recent study revealed that CNTN demonstrates promising <i>in vivo</i> effects against toxoplasmosis in murine models. These effects are attributed to its antioxidant properties and immunomodulatory capabilities, which increase specific pro-inflammatory cytokines without any noticeable signs of toxicity to liver and kidney function.
