Persistent chlamydiae: from cell culture to a paradigm for chlamydial pathogenesis
Microbiological Reviews, 1994 Chlamydiae are medically important bacteria responsible for a wide range of human infections and diseases. Repeated episodes of infection promote chronic inflammation associated with detrimental immune system-mediated pathologic changes. However, the true nature of chlamydial pathogenesis may encompass repeated infection superimposed upon persistent ...

What’s in a word: the use, misuse and abuse of the word persistence in Chlamydia biology
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014 The word persistence was used by Chlamydia researchers almost as soon as Chlamydia research was born to reflect the propensity of chlamydiae to cause inapparent infection in their hosts, from birds to humans.

Epiphora: A Structured Diagnostic Approach for the Otolaryngologist
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Epiphora, or excessive tearing, has historically been predominantly managed by ophthalmologists. However, as there is substantial overlap between ophthalmic and otolaryngologic anatomy and pathology that may contribute to epiphora, patients with this symptom often present to otolaryngologists as well.

Determination of the effect of JO146, a CtHtrA inhibitor, on the chlamydial developmental cycle and persistence [PDF]
, 2015 The role of Chlamydia trachomatis HtrA (CtHtrA) for the growth and pathogenesis of this organism is presented. Inhibition of CtHtrA led to loss of infectious progeny in Chlamydia, particularly during heat stress or recovery from penicillin persistence ...

Drivers of Host–Pathogen Community Assemblages in European Forests and Urban Green Spaces
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite advances in understanding infectious diseases, the persistence and re‐emergence of wildlife pathogens continue to raise public and veterinary health concerns. This study investigates the relationship between biodiversity and rodent‐borne diseases in Europe, focusing on habitat alterations and their impact on rodent diversity.

Influence of the Anti-HIV drug Elvitegravir on Chlamydial Development and the Characterization of Chlamydial Polymorphic Membrane Protein Expression in Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)/C. trachomatis Co-infected Cells [PDF]
, 2015 Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common bacterial agent of sexually transmitted infections worldwide and a common co-infection in AIDS patients. Chlamydial genital tract infections are often asymptomatic; therefore many infections go untreated and ...

Allergy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...
