PCR detection and differentiation of Chlamydia pneumoniae, Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia trachomatis

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Probes, 1992
A PCR-based system was developed for the detection and differentiation of Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia pneumoniae. A conserved 145 bp fragment of the chlamydial omp1 gene was amplified from all three species. The three species were then differentiated from each other by digestion of this PCR product with restriction enzymes ...

Docking Simulations and Virtual Screening to find Novel Ligands for T3S in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis YPIII, A drug target for type III secretion (T3S) in the Gram-negative pathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Review and Letters, 2021
In the Gram-negative pathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Chlamydia, the aggregate use of molecular docking, molecular dynamic simulations, and ADMET was successfully used to develop salicylidene acyl hydrazides as type III secretion (T3S) inhibitors.

Whole-genome analysis of diverse Chlamydia trachomatis strains identifies phylogenetic relationships masked by current clinical typing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for both trachoma and sexually transmitted infections, causing substantial morbidity and economic cost globally. Despite this, our knowledge of its population and evolutionary genetics is limited.

Recruitment of young women to a trial of chlamydia screening - as easy as it sounds? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Recruiting to trials is complex and difficult. The Prevention of Pelvic Infection (POPI) trial aims to see if screening women for chlamydia and treating those found to be infected reduces the incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease in the ...

Community risk factors for ocular Chlamydia infection in Niger: pre-treatment results from a cluster-randomized trachoma trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Trachoma control programs utilize mass azithromycin distributions to treat ocular Chlamydia trachomatis as part of an effort to eliminate this disease world-wide. But it remains unclear what the community-level risk factors are for infection.

The frequency of Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein-specific CD8+ T lymphocytes in active trachoma is associated with current ocular infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Chlamydia-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes are able to control model infections but may be implicated in disease pathogenesis. HLA-A2 peptide tetramers to Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein 258-266 (MOMP258-266) and MOMP260-268 were used ...
