We succeeded in the detection of parasite factor associated with dormant differentiation by the whole genome sequence analyses. We established the experimental system that Toxoplasma cysts can be formed in mice brain. The effects of drugs were analyzed using this system. The recombinant parasite was manufactured which have the luminescent gene downstream of the promoter of gene associated with dormant differentiation. The drug screening system which selects the inhibitors of dormant differentiation by the luminescent activity was established.
