Persistent Chlamydial Envelope Antigens in Antibiotic‐Exposed Infected Cells Trigger Neutrophil Chemotaxis [PDF]
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1999 An in vitro coculture model system was used to explore conditions that trigger neutrophil chemotaxis to Chlamydia trachomatis infected human epithelial cells (HEC-1B). Polarized HEC-1B monolayers growing on extracellular matrix (ECM) were infected with C. trachomatis serovar E. By 36 h, coincident with the secretion of chlamydial lipopolysaccharide and

Illuminating Immunity: A Systematic Review of Immune Cell Autofluorescence
Journal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Immunophenotyping provides valuable prognostic and diagnostic information, but is technically complex and expensive. The assessment of autofluorescence is label‐free and provides complex information on cell identity. However, research on its application to immunophenotyping has been heterogenous.

Mixed infection by fowlpox virus and Chlamydophila psittaci in a commercial laying hen flock [PDF]
, 2014 An outbreak of fowlpox occurred in a commercial laying hen flock in one of the western provinces of Poland. Clinical signs suggested fowlpox and the diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological detection of Bollinger bodies within the epithelial cells ...

Frontiers 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

Microbiota diversity and differences in the respiratory tract of children with pneumonia
Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.Differences in microbial communities in the upper and lower respiratory tract in patients with pneumonia were investigated in this study by sequencing the 16S rRNA genes in pharyngeal swabs and alveolar lavage fluid. Forty‐three subjects were enrolled in the study, and one upper and one lower respiratory tract sample were collected from each subject ...
