Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia diagnosed by metagenomics next-generation sequencing: a case report [PDF]
Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia is a relatively rare zoonotic disease. However, lack of specific clinical symptoms, effective and rapid laboratory diagnosis methods and clear epidemiological data sometimes may make it difficult to diagnose the disease. This

Chlamydial infection from outside to inside [PDF]
Chlamydia are obligate intracellular bacteria, characterized by a unique biphasic developmental cycle. Specific interactions with the host cell are crucial for the bacteria's survival and amplification because of the reduced chlamydial genome.

Chlamydia psittaci infection in canaries heavily infested by Dermanyssus gallinae [PDF]
Dermanyssus gallinae is a haematophagous ectoparasite responsible for anemia, weight loss, dermatitis and a decrease in egg production. Dermanyssus gallinae may play a role in the modulation of the host immune system, maybe predisposing the host to some ...
