Chlamydophila Pneumoniae Infection in Adult Asthmatics Patients

Journal of Asthma, 2008
This study has attempted to investigate the prevalence of Chlamydophila pneumoniae (CP) infection in patients with asthma.A total of 84 patients with stable asthma (58 males + 26 females; mean age +/- SD; 37.3 +/- 11.0 years), 22 patients with asthma exacerbation (17 males + 5 females; mean age +/- SD; 33.2 +/- 9.1 years), and 34 healthy adults (18 ...

Chlamydophila pneumoniae

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2005
Summary Chlamydophila (Chlamydia) pneumoniae, a gram-negative obligate intracellular bacterium, is a widespread respiratory pathogen. Chronic C. pneumoniae infection has been suggested as a trigger/ promoter of inflammation that may result in vascular lesions. Although the genome of C. pneumoniae has been sequenced completely this information

Extrarespiratory Chlamydophila pneumoniae Infection

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2004
A series of 3 patients with prolonged fever due to Chlamydophila pneumoniae is reported. Laboratory data revealed hepatitis and various haemogram abnormalities. The main features of acute extrarespiratory infection caused by C. pneumoniae are discussed.

Acute intrahepatic cholestasis accompanied with Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection

Medical Molecular Morphology, 2011
We report a case of Chlamydophila (C.) pneumoniae infection presenting with fever and rapid intrahepatic cholestasis. A 63-year-old man had a week-long history of intermittent high fever and rapidly progressive jaundice with atypical erythema. The results of liver function tests were recorded. The results of all serological tests were negative; the IgM,

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
