Rechallenge of previously-infected pregnant ewes with Chlamydophila abortus

Veterinary Research Communications, 2005
In an attempt to ascertain the means whereby previous exposure to Chlamydophila (C.) abortus can protect against the re-occurrence of enzootic abortion of ewes (EAE), ten previously-exposed ewes were intravenously rechallenged with a large infective dose of C. abortus during pregnancy.

Inhibition of lymphocyte CD3 expression by Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2008
Since lymphocytes are a major immune cell besides macrophages in the development of atherosclerosis, interaction between lymphocytes and Chlamydophila pneumoniae may contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases associated with C. pneumoniae.

Immunopathology of Chlamydophila abortus infection in sheep and mice

Research in Veterinary Science, 2005
Chlamydophila abortus targets the placenta, causing tissue damage, inflammation and abortion (enzootic abortion of ewes). It is one of the main infectious causes of abortion in ewes, resulting in major economic losses to agricultural industries worldwide.

Liver granulomatosis: a case of Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection

Acta Clinica Belgica, 2014
An 18-year-old man was referred to the Internal Medicine ward because of a 2-week history of intermittent high fever, weight loss and cough. Clinical examination revealed hepato-splenomegaly and multiple lymph nodes swelling while laboratory tests showed elevated C-reactive protein, gamma glutamyl transferase and lactate dehydrogenase.

Chlamydophila psittaci infections in The Netherlands.

Drugs of today (Barcelona, Spain : 1998), 2009
Psittacosis, caused by Chlamydophila psittaci, is a well described but sporadically occurring clinical entity, which mainly presents as community-acquired pneumonia. Diagnosis used to be relatively difficult. However, new molecular techniques, such as real-time polymerase chain reaction, increased detection of cases. Furthermore, genotyping of the ompA

Chlamydophila pneumoniae serology: cross-reaction with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2013
Atypical pathogens Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydophila pneumoniae play an important role in community-acquired pneumonia. However, it has been pointed out that positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA, Hitazyme C. pneumoniae) IgM reactivity is frequent among M. pneumoniae pneumonia patients.

Development of a hamster model of Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection

Veterinary Research Communications, 2005
The aim of this study was to develop a new experimental model of Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection in the hamster. Intraperitoneal injection of C. pneumoniae purified elementary bodies (EBs) in the hamsters caused a systemic infection, since it was possible to isolate viable chlamydiae from several organs up to 14 days after infection.

Chlamydophila psittaci subclinical infection in chronic polyarthritis.

Clinical and experimental rheumatology, 2011
Recent evidence indicates that Chlamydophila psittaci (Cp) may establish chronic infections, which may promote autoimmunity and/or B cell lymphoproliferation.The presence of a subclinical Cp infection was investigated in 293 patients with chronic inflammatory polyarthritis, including 175 patients with rheumatoid factor (RF)-positive and/or anti-CCP ...

Epizootic abortion related to infections by Chlamydophila abortus and Chlamydophila pecorum in water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis)

Theriogenology, 2008
Water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) are affected by high rates of embryonic mortality and abortion related to infectious diseases and non-infectious factors. A number of viral and bacterial infections have been associated with reproductive failure, but there is limited information on the role of chlamydial infections.

Seroprevalence of Chlamydophila pneumoniae in HIV-infected children in Vietnam

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2013
A total of 89 blood samples collected from HIV-infected infants and children from provinces of southern Vietnam who were hospitalized at Children's Hospital 1, Ho Chi Minh City, during the 1-year period from October 2004 to September 2005 were submitted to serological screening for IgG, IgA, and IgM antibodies against Chlamydophila pneumoniae (C ...
