Abstract in brief
Latent Toxoplasmosis is caused by a parasite that can infect many hosts, including humans and rodents, often settling in the brain and potentially affecting behavior and brain health.
The research is exploring whether this long-term infection influences behavior or contributes to neurodegenerative diseases, but there is debate about how much of these effects are real versus media hype.
The study aims to review the existing data and theories on how Toxoplasma might alter host behavior and brain function, highlighting both supporting evidence and skepticism.]
