A model of tissue cyst formation was developed using D609, a specific inhibitor of phosphatidylcholine specific-phospholipase C. The phospholipase inhibitor induced a decrease in Toxoplasma gondii multiplication and several successive treatments could lead to an arrest in parasite multiplication and full encystment of the parasites. This could be a first step towards an in vitro model of T. gondii reactivation.
