Atherosclerosis and Chlamydophila (chlamydia) Pneumoniae
The concept that atherosclerosis was induced by environmental factors such as smoking and high fat intake was perturbated when inflammation was found to be prominent in atherosclerotic lesions. Chlamydophila pneumoniae but also other microbes inducing chronic endothelial infections have been implicated, particularly cytomegalovirus (CMV) and the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori. Large sero-...
متن کاملChlamydophila psittaci and Chlamydophila pecorum infections in goats and sheep in Egypt.
The aim of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of chlamydiosis in free-ranging asymptomatic and diarrhoeic sheep and goats in Egypt. Faecal swabs were examined for the presence of Chlamydiae by culture in Vero cells and chick embryos, and staining with Giménez, direct fluorescein-conjugated monoclonal antibodies, and immunoperoxidase. Specific chlamydial DNA was identified by amplifi...
متن کاملChlamydophila pneumoniae in asthma.
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. [1] argued in favour of acute, rather than chronic, infection as the explanation for their observation that detection was mostly intermittent rather than ...

متن کاملIsolation of Chlamydophila psittaci from pet birds in Iran
Avian chlamydiosis is one of the most important infectious diseases of birds. Despite the rapid growth of exotic bird populations in Iran, there is little or no information on the specific infections that these types of birds carry. In this study, conventional isolation methods were used in cell culture to study occurrence of infection in pet birds. Samples from the conjunctiva, choana, and clo...
