Chlamydiaceae are Gram-negative obligate intracellular bacteria. They are responsible for a
broad range of diseases in animals and humans. In pigs, Chlamydia suis, Chlamydia …

The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis occupies a parasitophorous
vacuole termed an inclusion. During its intracellular developmental cycle, C. trachomatis …

An in vitro cell culture system was used to study the effect of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma)
on Chlamydia trachomatis growth and differentiation. The effect of IFN-gamma on …

Previous studies have shown that the immune-regulated cytokine gamma interferon (IFN-
gamma) activates host cells to restrict intracellular growth of the bacterial pathogen …

Active inflammation and NF-κB activation contribute fundamentally to atherogenesis and
plaque disruption. Accumulating evidence has implicated specific infectious agents …

Mice with disrupted beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m-/-), IA (class II-/-), or CD4 (CD4-/-) genes
were examined for their capacity to resolve Chlamydia trachomatis genital tract infection …

Foam cell formation is the hallmark of early atherosclerosis. It was found that the intracellular
bacterium Chlamydia pneumoniae induces foam cell formation by human monocyte-derived …

Chlamydiae are obligate intracellular pathogens that spend their entire growth phase
sequestered in a membrane‐bound vacuole called an inclusion. A set of chlamydial …

Acquired immunity to murine Chlamydia trachomatis genital tract reinfection has long been
assumed to be solely dependent on cell-mediated immunity. However, in this study, we …

Chlamydiae are obligate intracellular bacteria which occupy a non‐acidified vacuole (the
inclusion) throughout their developmental cycle. Little is known about events leading to the …
