Immunity to Chlamydia trachomatis [PDF]

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2013
In this issue of the Journal, Geisler and colleagues [1] report convincing epidemiologicalevidencethatcervicalinfection with Chlamydia trachomatis produces immunity in at least a subset of naturally infected women. Over a 2.5-year period, they enrolled 243 C. trachomatis–infected women in a treatment study.

Penicillin kills chlamydia following the fusion of bacteria with Lysosomes and prevents genital inflammatory lesions in C. muridarum-infected mice [PDF]

, 2013
The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia exists as two distinct forms. Elementary bodies (EBs) are infectious and extra-cellular, whereas reticulate bodies (RBs) replicate within a specialized intracellular compartment termed an ‘inclusion ...

Estrogens and Chlamydia trachomatis

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1986
Isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis were inoculated in nonreplicating McCoy cells and incubated for 48 hr with various concentrations of hormones. Only the estrogens, particularly 17-beta-estradiol, had an affect on the subsequent infection of the McCoy cells by the Chlamydia.
