Inapparent respiratory infection of inbred Swiss mice with sulfadiazine-resistant, iodine-negative Chlamydiae.
Three chlamydial strains were isolated from the lungs of three different strains of mice that were inbred for over 30 years. These chlamydial strains were resistant to sulfadiazine and did not induce iodine-positive, glycogen-like material in the inclusions of infected L cells which characterizes them as Chlamydia psittaci.
متن کاملThe many faces of chlamydiae.
The application of modern research tools has broadened our understanding of the chlamydiae and their role in disease. Chlamydial genome analysis showed the presence of genes for ATP and peptidoglycan synthesis, contradicting the common belief that chlamydiae lack the ability to produce these compounds. Phylogenetic tree analysis suggests that chlamydiae could have evolved from an intracellular ...
متن کاملChlamydiae in Gastrointestinal Disease
Disorders of gut function are among the most prevalent problems presented to physicians practicing in gastroenterology as well as primary care physicians and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional gastrointestinal disorder. There is no biomarker of IBS. Instead, the diagnosis is based on symptom criteria and the absence of an organic cause for symptoms (Longstreth et al., ...
متن کاملGenome sequencing and our understanding of chlamydiae.
A driving force in the evolution of a microorganism is the ability to colonize a niche. A vertebrate organism represents a unique niche, but to an infecting microbe it is simply an environment to be exploited. Many pathogens explore yet another opportunity—the intracellular environment. The chlamydiae are obligate intracellular pathogens that have established a unique niche within the host cell...
متن کاملChlamydiae and polymorphonuclear leukocytes: unlikely allies in the spread of chlamydial infection.
While much is known about the attachment of the chlamydiae to the host cell and intracellular events during the developmental cycle, little is known about the mechanism(s) by which elementary bodies exit the cell. In this report, we use the guinea-pig conjunctival model of Chlamydia caviae infection to present in vivo ultrastructural evidence supporting two mechanisms for release of chlamydiae ...
