The present study aimed to investigate the probable causes of BeWo cell susceptibility to Toxoplasma gondii infection in comparison with HeLa cells that served as controls. Both cell types were submitted to different treatments with recombinant citokynes (rIL-10 and rTGF-β1) or their respective antibodies (anti-IL-10 and anti-TGF-β) before or after T. gondii infection. In some experiments, rIFN-γ was added after the parasite infection. Then, cells were fixed, stained and parasites quantified under optical microscopy with regards to intracellular proliferation and infection index (percentage of infected cells per 100 examined cells). Treatments with rIL-10 and rTGF-β1 induced a considerable augment in T. gondii intracellu...
