Use of gene sequences as type for naming prokaryotes: Recommendations of the international committee on the taxonomy of chlamydiae

New Microbes and New Infections, 2023
The International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes (ICSP) discussed and rejected in 2020 a proposal to modify the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes to allow the use of gene sequences as type for naming prokaryotes.

Chlamydia-Like Organisms (CLOs) in Finnish Ixodes ricinus Ticks and Human Skin

Microorganisms, 2016
Ticks carry several human pathogenic microbes including Borreliae and Flavivirus causing tick-born encephalitis. Ticks can also carry DNA of Chlamydia-like organisms (CLOs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence of CLOs in ticks and

Impact of Waddlia chondrophila infection on pregnancy in the mouse

New Microbes and New Infections, 2020
The intracellular bacterium Waddlia chondrophila, which belongs to the Chlamydiales order, was found to be associated with miscarriage in humans. There is little to no knowledge regarding the mode of infection, impact on the neonate and pathophysiology ...

Tackling the intractable – Approaching the genetics of Chlamydiales

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2007
Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia (Chlamydophila) pneumoniae are important human pathogens with significant socio-economic and medical impact. The development of an improved therapy or vaccine would represent a major break-through in the battle against these infections.

Alterations in blood microbiota after colonic cancer surgery

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1227-1237, December 2020., 2020
This study investigated changes in the amount of bacterial DNA in blood and the diversity of blood microbiota in the perioperative period in 30 patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery for colonic cancer. DNA encoding the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene (16S rDNA) was found in whole blood from these patients, and the amount of bacterial 16S rDNA

Insight into cross-talk between intra-amoebal pathogens

BMC Genomics, 2011
Background Amoebae are phagocytic protists where genetic exchanges might take place between amoeba-resistant bacteria. These amoebal pathogens are able to escape the phagocytic behaviour of their host.

Diverse Stress-Inducing Treatments cause Distinct Aberrant Body Morphologies in the Chlamydia-Related Bacterium, Waddlia chondrophila

Microorganisms, 2020
Chlamydiae, such as Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia pneumoniae, can cause chronic infections. It is believed that persistent forms called aberrant bodies (ABs) might be involved in this process.

Improving the molecular diagnosis of Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia abortus infection with a species-specific duplex real-time PCR. [PDF]

, 2015
Chlamydia psittaci and Chlamydia abortus are closely related intracellular bacteria exhibiting different tissue tropism that may cause severe but distinct infection in humans. C.
