Implications for persistent chlamydial infections of phagocyte-microorganism interplay
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1991In vitro models of Chlamydia trachomatis inhibition by cytokines, human-monocyte derived macrophages (HMDM) and human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (HPMN) are discussed in an attempt to delineate the molecular basis of parasite-host cell interplay in persistent and chronic chlamydial infection. Interferon gamma (IFN) has been found to reversibly inhibit

Human Chlamydial Infections: Persistence, Prevalence, and Outlook for the Future [PDF]
Natures Sciences Societes, 2005 Maladies infectieuses dues aux Chlamydia. Pourquoi cette persistance et quel avenir ?L’humanite a ete lourdement marquee par les maladies infectieuses tout au long de son histoire. Il faut bien aujourd’hui constater que les pathologies provoquees par des microbes et affligeant l’homme depuis des millenaires demeurent toujours une preoccupation majeure ...

Diseases caused by C. trachomatis have an adverse impact on male and female health and the reproductive function and are among the leading causes of infertility. Even though C. trachomatis is a sexually transmitted pathogen adapted to the epithelial cells of the urogenital tract (UGT), it has a fairly wide tropism and can infect blood cells ...

The purpose of this chapter is to define what one do and do not know about chlamydial persistence with the goal of determining the extent of the role that persistence plays in chlamydial disease (if at all) and what one should do to better understand this chlamydial attribute. Out of P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae, and P.

Augmented oxidative stress in infertile women with persistent chlamydial infection
Reproductive Biology, 2017There is established association between oxidative stress, infections of genital tract and fertility. Genital tract infections may provoke increased production of free radicals and generate oxidative stress that can be involved in pathophysiology of a number of reproductive diseases and complications during pregnancy.

Electron microscopic evidence of persistent chlamydial infection following treatment
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2001Abstract Chlamydia trachomatis infections of the female and male genital tracts are often asymptomatic and, thus, tend to become persistent. In the persistent state the typical Chlamydia life cycle is arrested and standard antibiotic regimens do not always eradicate this infection. We sought to relate treatment failures in men and women with persistent

Presentation of clinically suspected persistent chlamydial infection: a case series
International Journal of STD & AIDS, 2013In vivo antimicrobial resistance has yet to be documented in Chlamydia trachomatis; however, there have been anecdotal reports of persistent infection. The purpose of this case series was to describe a group of patients who have persistent chlamydia infection despite adequate treatment and where re-infection was considered unlikely.

Persistent Superficial Punctate Keratitis After Resolution of Chlamydial Follicular Conjunctivitis
Cornea, 1992Two cases of follicular conjunctivitis due to Chlamydia trachomatis followed by punctate epithelial keratitis are described. Both cases were initially treated with either oral tetracycline or doxycycline with resolution of the follicles. These two patients subsequently had recurrent, bilateral grayish lesions at various levels in the corneal epithelium

A case of renal involvement in persistent immune activation caused by chlamydial salpingitis
Virchows Archiv, 2001A 24-year-old woman presented with renal insufficiency, macrohematuria, and mild urinary protein. Polyclonal hypergamma-globulinemia, thrombocytosis, increased concentration of serum, and urinary interleukin (IL)-6 all indicated persistent immune activation caused by a Chlamydia trachomatis infection of the fallopian tube.

Chlamydia trachomatis Growth Inhibition by IFNγ: Implications for Persistent Chlamydial Infections
2021The immune response to chlamydial infections and the role it plays in resistance to reinfection, resolution of ongoing infection, and development of persistent chlamydial infection is poorly understood. Inhibition of chlamydial growth as a result of deprivation of necessary metabolites, such as certain amino acids, has been described previously and ...
