Reliable and Sensitive Nested PCR for the Detection of Chlamydia in Sputum

Microorganisms, 2021
Chlamydia are Gram-negative, intracellular pathogens colonizing epithelial mucosa. They cause primarily atypical pneumonia and have recently been associated with chronic diseases.

Seasonal and environmental factors contribute to the variation in the gut microbiome: A large‐scale study of a small bird

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 93, Issue 10, Page 1475-1492, October 2024.
The results bring new knowledge of the seasonal and environmental effects and the within and among‐population variation in the gut microbiome of wildlife. We believe that our study will be interesting for a wide audience, including evolutionary, behavioural and microbial ecologists and ecophysiologists.

Host avian species and environmental conditions influence the microbial ecology of brood parasitic brown‐headed cowbird nestlings: What rules the roost?

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 6, March 2024.
Abstract The role of species interactions, as well as genetic and environmental factors, all likely contribute to the composition and structure of the gut microbiome; however, disentangling these independent factors under field conditions represents a challenge for a functional understanding of gut microbial ecology.

CRISPR System Acquisition and Evolution of an Obligate Intracellular Chlamydia-Related Bacterium. [PDF]

, 2016
Recently, a new Chlamydia-related organism, Protochlamydia naegleriophila KNic, was discovered within a Naegleria amoeba. To decipher the mechanisms at play in the modeling of genomes from the Protochlamydia genus, we sequenced the full genome of Pr ...

Retrospective analysis of the spread of cat chlamydia and features of its treatment with a drug based on azithromycin [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The Chlamydiales order bacteria are eukaryotic cells obligate intracellular parasites. The major purpose of the research was to study the prevalence, clinical progression and treatment of Chlamydia in cats with an azithromycin-based drug.

Genomic analyses of the Chlamydia trachomatis core genome show an association between chromosomal genome, plasmid type and disease

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) plasmid has been shown to encode genes essential for infection. We evaluated the population structure of Ct using whole-genome sequence data (WGS).

Chlamydiae in febrile children with respiratory tract symptoms and age-matched controls, Ghana

New Microbes and New Infections, 2018
Members of the Chlamydiales order are obligate intracellular pathogens causing acute and chronic infectious diseases. Chlamydiaceae are established agents of community- and zoonotically acquired respiratory tract infections, and emerging pathogens among ...

ESCMID postgraduate technical workshop on intracellular bacteria: from biology to clinic. [PDF]

, 2014
Infection by intracellular bacteria can lead to several diseases in both veterinary and human medicine. Unfortunately, the biology of these intracellular bacteria is highly complex due to their interactions with their host cells.
