Tet(C) Gene Transfer between Chlamydia suis Strains Occurs by Homologous Recombination after Co-infection: Implications for Spread of Tetracycline-Resistance among Chlamydiaceae

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Chlamydia suis is a swine pathogen that has also recently been found to cause zoonotic infections of the human eye, pharynx, and gastrointestinal tract.

Reproductive disorders induced by Chlamydophila spp. infections in an italian mediterranean buffalo (bubalus bubalis) herd

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
The Italian Mediterranean Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) has low fecundity and high incidence of abortion. Several studies have associated reproductive failure of water buffalo with viral infections but there is limited information on the role of chlamydial ...

The Impact of Lateral Gene Transfer in Chlamydia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Lateral gene transfer (LGT) facilitates many processes in bacterial ecology and pathogenesis, especially regarding pathogen evolution and the spread of antibiotic resistance across species.

The geographical region of origin determines the phagocytic vulnerability of Lichtheimia strains

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 21, Issue 12, Page 4563-4581, December 2019., 2019
Summary Mucormycoses are life‐threatening infections that affect patients suffering from immune deficiencies. We performed phagocytosis assays confronting various strains of Lichtheimia species with alveolar macrophages, which form the first line of defence of the innate immune system.

Survey of infectious etiologies of bovine abortion during mid- to late gestation in dairy herds. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Bovine abortion of unknown infectious etiology still remains a major economic problem. Thus, we investigated whether Brucella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., Campylobacter spp.

Chlamydia trachomatis Growth and Cytokine mRNA Response in a Prostate Cancer Cell Line

open access: yesAdvances in Urology, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
In the present paper, we report that C. trachomatis can be efficiently propagated and affect mRNA expression for two major cytokines, relevant to tumor progression, in CWR‐R1 cells, a malignant prostate cell line. CWR‐R1 and McCoy cells, a classic cell line for chlamydial research, were grown and infected with C.

Effects of dietary supplementation of myristic acid on jejunal mucosa‐associated microbiota, mucosal immunity, and growth performance of nursery pigs

open access: yesAnimal Science Journal, Volume 96, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of myristic acid on jejunal mucosal microbiota, mucosal immunity, and growth performance of nursery pigs. Thirty‐six pigs (6.6 ± 0.4 kg of body weight) were assigned to three treatments (n = 12) for 35 d in three phases: (NC) basal diet; (PC) NC + bacitracin; and (MA) NC + myristic ...

A flow cytometry‐based assay to determine the phagocytic activity of both clinical and nonclinical antibody samples against Chlamydia trachomatis

open access: yesCytometry Part A, Volume 93, Issue 5, Page 525-532, May 2018., 2018
The illustration shows a simple, rapid, flow cytometry based assay to measure the capacity of antibodies to mediate Fc‐receptor dependent phagocytosis of labeled bacteria. Abstract Globally, an estimated 131 million new cases of chlamydial infection occur annually.

Pathway‐Wide Genetic Risks in Chlamydial Infections Overlap between Tissue Tropisms: A Genome‐Wide Association Scan

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Chlamydia trachomatis is the most commonly diagnosed bacterial sexually transmitted infection and can lead to tubal factor infertility, a disease characterised by fibrosis of the fallopian tubes. Genetic polymorphisms in molecular pathways involving G protein‐coupled receptor signalling, the Akt/PI3K cascade, the mitotic cell cycle, and immune response

Chlamydia pecorum Associated With an Outbreak of Infectious Keratoconjunctivitis in Semi-domesticated Reindeer in Sweden

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
Infectious keratoconjunctivitis (IKC), the most common ocular disease in ruminants worldwide, has affected semi-domesticated Eurasian reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) for over 100 years, both as individual cases and in outbreaks affecting tens to ...
