Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia diagnosed by metagenomics next-generation sequencing: a case report [PDF]

Zhenduanxue lilun yu shijian, 2022
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

Molecular characterization of Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia psittaci plasmids [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1986
Plasmids from Chlamydia trachomatis LGV-434 (serotype L2) and Chlamydia psittaci meningopneumonitis strain Cal-10 were cloned into the BamHI and EcoRI sites of pBR322, respectively. The recombinant plasmids pCTL2 and pCPMn, each containing an entire respective chlamydial plasmid, were transformed into Escherichia coli.

Hepatitis in a Family Infected by Chlamydia Psittaci [PDF]

Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1991
Hepatic involvement is considered a rare complication of psittacosis. Occurrence of icteric hepatitis as the cardinal manifestation of the disease has been rarely reported. We describe two members of a family infected by psittacosis, in whom icteric hepatitis was the prominent expression of the disease.

Data of de novo genome assembly of the Chlamydia psittaci strain isolated from the livestock in Volga Region, Russian Federation

Data in Brief, 2020
Chlamydiae are obligate intracellular bacteria globally widespread across humans, wildlife, and domesticated animals. Chlamydia psittaci is a primarily zoonotic pathogen with multiple hosts, which can be transmitted to humans, resulting in psittacosis or

Purine metabolism by intracellular Chlamydia psittaci [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1993
Purine metabolism was studied in the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia psittaci AA Mp in the wild type and a variety of mutant host cell lines with well-defined deficiencies in purine metabolism. C. psittaci AA Mp cannot synthesize purines de novo, as assessed by its inability to incorporate exogenous glycine into nucleic acid purines.

Analysis of Polymorphic Membrane Protein Expression in Cultured Cells Identifies PmpA and PmpH of Chlamydia psittaci as Candidate Factors in Pathogenesis and Immunity to Infection. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The polymorphic membrane protein (Pmp) paralogous families of Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia pneumoniae and Chlamydia abortus are putative targets for Chlamydia vaccine development. To determine whether this is also the case for Pmp family members of C.

Pyrimidine metabolism by intracellular Chlamydia psittaci [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1993
Pyrimidine metabolism was studied in the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia psittaci AA Mp in the wild type and a variety of mutant host cell lines with well-defined mutations affecting pyrimidine metabolism. C. psittaci AA Mp cannot synthesize pyrimidines de novo, as assessed by its inability to incorporate aspartic acid into nucleic acid ...

Chlamydia psittaci in birds of prey, Sweden [PDF]

Infection Ecology & Epidemiology, 2012
Chlamydia psittaci is an intracellular bacterium primarily causing respiratory diseases in birds but may also be transmitted to other animals, including humans. The prevalence of the pathogen in wild birds in Sweden is largely unknown.DNA was extracted from cloacae swabs and screened for C. psittaci by using a 23S rRNA gene PCR assay.

Occurrence of Chlamydiae in Corvids in Northeast Italy

Animals, 2022
Chlamydiaceae occurrence has been largely evaluated in wildlife, showing that wild birds are efficient reservoirs for avian chlamydiosis. In this study, DNA extracted from cloacal swabs of 108 corvids from Northeast Italy was screened for Chlamydiaceae ...
