Vaccine, 2010
Comparative genomic analysis of a wild-type strain of the ovine pathogen Chlamydophila abortus and its nitrosoguanidine-induced, temperature-sensitive and virulence-attenuated live vaccine derivative identified point mutations unique to the mutant (Burall et al. [1]).

Abort beim Menschen durch Chlamydophila abortus (Chlamydia psittaci serovar 1)
Schweizer Archiv für Tierheilkunde, 2002Auf einem landwirtschaftlichen Betrieb, der Rinder und Ziegen halt traten bei den Ziegen in der Ablammsaison 2000/2001 um 50% Aborte auf, von denen bei einem von drei untersuchten Fallen Chlamydophila abortus als Ursache nachgewiesen wurde. In dieser Zeit hatte eine schwangere Frau (Graviditatswoche 19/20) Kontakt mit den abortierenden Ziegen.

Seroprevalence of Chlamydophila abortus infection in yaks (Bos grunniens) in Qinghai, China
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2013Chlamydophila abortus is an important amphixenosis which in a wide range of animals, associated with reproductive disorders in yaks. In order to assess the prevalence of this infection in yaks in Qinghai, China, a cross-sectional study was carried out, and a total of 674 serum samples were collected from June to October 2012 in six counties, and ...

Evaluation of two commercial assays for the detection of Chlamydophila abortus antibodies
Veterinary Microbiology, 2007Two commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), the CHEKIT-CHLAMYDIA which uses inactivated Chlamydophila psittaci antigen, and the Chlamydophila abortus ELISA produced by the Institut Pourquier which uses a recombinant fragment of the 80-90 kDa protein, were evaluated with the objective to determine whether the new ELISAs would perform as ...

Inflammatory cytokine responses in a pregnant mouse model of Chlamydophila abortus infection
Veterinary Microbiology, 2010Chlamydophila abortus (C. abortus) is the aetiological agent of ovine enzootic abortion (OEA). The highly elevated expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) and low-level expression of interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) that are detected in C. abortus-infected placentas have been implicated in the pathogenesis of OEA.

Ovine trophoblast is a primary source of TNFα during Chlamydophila abortus infection
Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 2009Chlamydophila abortus is a Gram-negative obligate intracellular bacterium that causes infectious abortion in sheep (ovine enzootic abortion, OEA) and humans. Infected placentas recovered from sheep that experience OEA have thickened membranes, contain dense inflammatory cellular infiltrates and show evidence of intravascular thrombosis.

Role of Chlamydophila abortus in ovine and caprine abortion in Sardinia, Italy
Veterinary Research Communications, 2005Between 1999-2003, 14321 sera and 646 abortion samples (498 foetuses and 148 placentae) were analysed from 807 sheep and goat farms distributed all over the island of Sardinia. After notification of abortion in a flock, sera collected at random from adult animals were examined to detect antibodies specific to Chlamydophila (C.) abortus by ELISA ...

Experimental infection of pregnant ewes with enteric and abortion-source Chlamydophila abortus
Veterinary Microbiology, 2001Two groups of pregnant ewes were experimentally infected oronasally in midpregnancy. A faecal and an abortion-source isolate of Chlamydophila abortus were used. They were derived from a healthy ewe from a flock with no history of abortion, and from an aborted foetus in a farm with enzootic abortion. As assessed by modified Ziehl-Neelsen (MZN) staining,
