Parasite actively egress from UTP treated cell culture. Peritoneal macrophages were infected with T. gondii tachyzoites for 2h and then treated with 100 μM UTP. Cell culture was recorded immediately after nucleotide treatment. Video microscopy shows at least 3 parasites egressing from different infected cells.
