Chlamydia pneumoniae, a fairly recent addition to the genus Chlamydia, has been shown to cause community-acquired and nosocomial pneumonias, and to be a common infectious agent in human populations throughout the world. It has a wide variety of clinical presentations, and may be associated with ischaemic heart disease.

This chapter examines discusses C. pneumoniae as a common human respiratory pathogen that has an uncertain mode of transmission and involves infected respiratory tract secretions. It also looks at reports on the spread of C. pneumoniae within families and enclosed populations, such as military recruits, prisons, and nursing homes.

The immunobiology of Chlamydia
Immunology Today, 1987Bacteria of the genus Chlamydia cause a wide variety of disorders in animals and people worldwide. The immune response to chlamydiae is poorly understood and, as Daniel Levitt shows here, there is recent evidence that these organisms induce perturbations in immune function that may assist their own survival in infected hosts and that of co-infecting ...

Chlamydia trachomatis, a gram-negative bacterium that often causes no symptoms, is creating a hidden epidemic. The asymptomatic nature of chlamydia promotes its spread; chlamydia is the most commonly reported notifiable disease in the United States. Nurse practitioners, as community members, create the optimal foundation for a healthy community.

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1998
Chlamydia trachomatis infection elicits both antibody and cell-mediated immune responses. Neutralizing antibody is serovar-specific and dependent upon conformational epitopes. CD4 lymphocytes (predominantly type 1 helper T cells) function in protection, but the role played by CD8 lymphocytes in protection or pathology is less well defined.

Archives of Microbiology, 2013
Phages are called "good viruses" due to their ability to infect and kill pathogenic bacteria. Chlamydia are small, Gram-negative (G-) microbes that can be dangerous to human and animals. In humans, these bacteria are etiological agents of diseases such as psittacosis or respiratory tract diseases, while in animals, the infection may result in enteritis

Positive Serology for Chlamydia: Is It Always for Chlamydia trachomatis?
Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 2010In this study we tried to determine the factual prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis seropositive women. Sera of 174 sexually active women of reproductive age who attended the emergency room in our gynecology department were tested by both a species-specific solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (SPEIA, ImmunoComb, Orgenics, Israel) and by an immunoperoxidase ...
