Trichomonas vaginalis extracellular vesicles activate the NLRP3 inflammasome and TLR3-mediated inflammatory cascades in host cells.
Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) is a flagellated parasite that causes trichomoniasis, the most common non-viral sexually transmitted infection (STI), with over 275 million cases annually. TV has been shown to secrete extracellular vesicles (TV-EVs) to regulate intercellular communication between parasite...
