Confirmation of Chlamydophila abortus in infected cell culture using Indirect Immunofluorescence technique [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2011
Chlamydophila abortus (C. abortus) is an important abortifacient agent in bovines and ovines. Clinical diagnosis of the disease is often difficult. An early diagnosis can be achieved based on direct demonstration of the organism in clinical material and ...

Inflammatory cytokine responses in a pregnant mouse model of Chlamydophila abortus infection

Veterinary Microbiology, 2010
Chlamydophila 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.

Missing links in the divergence of Chlamydophila abortus from Chlamydophila psittaci [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2003
Pathological and serological evidence and DNA-DNA reassociation data indicate that Chlamydophila psittaci and Chlamydophila abortus are separate species. C. psittaci causes avian systemic disease and C. abortus causes abortion. Both previously belonged to Chlamydia psittaci are associated with zoonotic and enzootic outbreaks.

Polymorphic outer-membrane proteins of Chlamydophila abortus are glycosylated [PDF]

Microbiology, 2001
Antigenic profiles of mono-, bi- and poly-specific monoclonal antibodies against 90 kDa polymorphic outer-membrane proteins (POMPs) and a 105 kDa POMP-related protein of Chlamydophila abortus ATCC VR 656(T), after one- and two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis, helped identify each one of the triplets POMP 90, 91A and 91B, and a POMP-related protein

Genotyping of Chlamydophila abortus strains by multilocus VNTR analysis [PDF]

Veterinary Microbiology, 2009
Chlamydophila (C.) abortus is the causative agent of ovine enzootic abortion with zoonotic potential whose epidemiology has been held back because of the obligate intracellular habitat of the bacterium. In the present study, we report on a molecular typing method termed multiple loci variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) Analysis (MLVA) for ...

Seroprevalence of antibodies to Chlamydophila abortus in ovine in the State of Alagoas, Brazil [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2010
The goal of this study was to perform a seroepidemiological investigation and to identify risk factors associated with infection of Chlamydophila abortus of sheep herds in the Brazilian state of Alagoas. The study was conducted with samples of 274 ewes with ages equal to or higher than 24 months in 25 herds and in 23 towns located in three regions of ...

Processing of chlamydia abortus polymorphic membrane protein 18D during the chlamydial developmental cycle [PDF]

, 2012
<p>Background: Chlamydia possess a unique family of autotransporter proteins known as the Polymorphic membrane proteins (Pmps). While the total number of pmp genes varies between Chlamydia species, all encode a single pmpD gene.

Subspecies variation in Greek strains of Chlamydophila abortus

Veterinary Microbiology, 2002
The Greek chlamydial strains FAS, FAG, VPG and LLG, isolated from aborted sheep or goat foetuses, had been previously characterized as divergent on the basis of mouse cross-protection experiments, with LLG and its homologous POS significantly different from the rest in inclusion morphology, polypeptide profiles and reactivity with monoclonal antibodies.
