Single-cell RNA-seq reveals CD16- monocytes as key regulators of human monocyte transcriptional response to Toxoplasma

Anirudh Patir, Anton G. Gossner, Prakash Ramachandran…·Musa A. Hassan

The paper uses single-cell RNA sequencing to show that CD16- monocytes are key in the transcriptional response of human monocytes to Toxoplasma infection, revealing transcriptional heterogeneity and cytokine secretion patterns.
