Figure 1 Intracellular Pathogens Hijack Host Cell Organelles Schematic representation of the protozoan parasites Toxoplasma and Plasmodium developing inside a parasitophorous vacuole (PV) and of the bacteria Chlamydia living in a membrane-bound compartment named inclusion. To thrive in an intracellular milieu, these organisms depend on numerous interactions with host cell structures and organelles. Lipid droplets (LD), microtubule organizing center (MTOC), endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and multivesicular bodies (MVB) are among the critical host structures described to associate with the different intracellular pathogens throughout their development.
