Emerging and well‐characterized chlamydial infections detected in a wide range of wild Australian birds

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e3154-e3170, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Birds can act as successful long‐distance vectors and reservoirs for numerous zoonotic bacterial, parasitic and viral pathogens, which can be a concern given the interconnectedness of animal, human and environmental health. Examples of such avian pathogens are members of the genus Chlamydia. Presently, there is a lack of research investigating

Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing for the diagnosis of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia

open access: yesThe Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 513-521, July 2022., 2022
The clinical characteristics of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia were analysed to inform clinical treatment. Early detection of mNGS is helpful for diagnosis and prognosis, and doxycycline is the preferred treatment. Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia and evaluate the diagnostic ...

Socio‐ecological drivers of multiple zoonotic hazards in highly urbanized cities

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1705-1724, March 2022., 2022
Effectively identifying and managing zoonotic hazards requires understanding the socio‐ecological processes driving hazard distribution and pathogen prevalence in dynamic and heterogeneous urban landscapes. Here we discuss how landscape patterns, abiotic conditions, and biotic interactions influence zoonotic hazards across highly urbanized cities (HUCs)

IL‐21/IL‐21R Regulates the Neutrophil‐Mediated Pathologic Immune Response during Chlamydial Respiratory Infection

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
IL‐21/IL‐21R was documented to participate in the regulation of multiple infection and inflammation. During Chlamydia muridarum (C. muridarum) respiratory infection, our previous study had revealed that the absence of this signal induced enhanced resistance to infection with higher protective Th1/Th17 immune responses.

Metagenomic Profiling of Fecal and Cecal Microbiota and Their Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Indigenous Backyard Poultry. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Microbiol
Indigenous backyard poultry is the predominant type of poultry in developing countries. Rural smallholder farmers in these regions usually adopt the free‐range (backyard) production system, which exposes the poultry to diverse environments and a broad spectrum of microorganisms that influence their diet and gut microbiota.

Adiponectin Deficiency Suppresses Rhabdomyosarcoma Associated with Gut Microbiota Regulation

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The gut microbiota is very important in the initiation, progression, and dissemination of cancer, and the regulation of microbiota has been employed as a novel strategy to enhance the effect of immunotherapy. Adiponectin (APN), an adipocyte‐derived hormone, plays a vital role in regulating the immune response of innate immune cells.

Detection of a Novel Chlamydia Species in Invasive Turtles

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Trachemys scripta is a turtle species native to Central America. Since the 1950s, pond sliders have been imported worldwide as companion animals, but have often ended up in foreign ecosystems with great ecological consequences.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Molecular evolution of the Chlamydiaceae. [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2001
Phylogenetic analyses of surface antigens and other chlamydial proteins were used to reconstruct the evolution of the Chlamydiaceae. Trees for all five coding genes [the major outer-membrane protein (MOMP), GroEL chaperonin, KDO-transferase, small cysteine-rich lipoprotein and 60 kDa cysteine-rich protein] supported the current organization of the ...

Characterization of serine hydroxymethyltransferase GlyA as a potential source of D-alanine in Chlamydia pneumoniae

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014
For intracellular Chlamydiaceae, there is no need to withstand osmotic challenges, and a functional cell wall has not been detected in these pathogens so far. Nevertheless, penicillin inhibits cell division in Chlamydiaceae resulting in enlarged aberrant
