Chlamydia (Chlamydophila) pneumoniae in animals: a review [PDF]

Veterinární medicína, 2004
An important discovery in the last couple of years is that humans are not the only natural hosts with which C. pneumoniae is the primary cause for the disease. Successively, the C. pneumoniae strain was isolated from horses, koala bears affected by ocular and genital infection, Australian and African frogs, from a Tanzanian chameleon, a green sea ...

Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009
Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection is ubiquitous. It accounts for 10% of community-acquired pneumonias and 5% of cases of pharyngitis, bronchitis and sinusitis in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised hosts. It is also involved in exacerbations of chronic bronchitis and asthma. Moreover, C.

Chlamydophila pneumoniae serological epidemiology

Microbiologia Medica, 2010
Chlamydophila pneumoniae is an obligate intracellular pathogens, that causes multiple types of respiratory tract infections.The exposure to this pathogen is quite common. C. pneumoniae may cause a persistent infection in multiple organs and may be associated with several chronic inflammatory conditions.

Infections Caused by Chlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2014
High affinity to the epithelial lining of the airways makes Chlamydophila pneumoniae a common etiological agent of respiratory tract infections (RTI). It causes among others: pharyngitis, tracheitis, sinusitis, otitis media, bronchitis and bronchiolitis, and pneumonia. It is estimated that Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection is responsible for about 20%

CulturingChlamydophila pneumoniae [PDF]

Journal of Chemotherapy, 2002
Chlamydophila pneumoniae (formerly Chlamydia pneumoniae) is an intracellular pathogen responsible for respiratory tract infection. A recent British survey of the microbial aetiology of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) indicated that C. pneumonia is responsible for 13% of CAP and is the second highest bacterial cause of CAP 1.

Chlamydophila (Chlamydia) pneumoniaein the Alzheimer's brain [PDF]

FEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 2006
We assessed the presence and characteristics of the intracellular pathogen Chlamydophila (Chlamydia) pneumoniae in brain-tissue samples from 25 patients with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 27 non-AD control individuals. 20/27 AD patients, but only 3/27 controls, were PCR-positive in multiple assays targetting the Cpn1046 and Cpn0695 genes ...

ELISA test to detect Chlamydophila pneumoniae IgG [PDF]

Journal of Basic Microbiology, 2002
A new ELISA test (Chlamydophila pneumoniae IgG, Vircell, Spain) to detect Chlamydophila pneumoniae IgG was evaluated. The micro-immunofluorescence (MIF) test was used as reference method. Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydophila psittaci elementary bodies were also assayed.

Chlamydophila pneumoniae infection and cardiovascular disease

North American Journal of Medical Sciences, 2013
Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial vascular inflammatory process; however, the inciting cause for inflammation remains unclear. Two decades ago, Chlamydophila pneumoniae (formerly Chlamydia pneumoniae) infection was proposed as a putative etiologic agent.

European Respiratory Journal, 2005
To the Editors: Biscione et al . 1 reported a significant association of upper airway Chlamydophila pneumoniae RT-PCR positivity in atopic asthmatics (cumulative rate 22%) compared with nonatopic nonasthmatic spouses (9%). In the discussion, Biscione et al .
