متن کاملMolecular detection and seroepidemiology of the Chlamydia pneumoniae bacteriophage (PhiCpn1).
Recent whole-genome analysis has demonstrated limited genetic variation in Chlamydia pneumoniae, with one strain (AR39) containing a 4,524 nucleotide single-stranded DNA bacteriophage, PhiCpn1. Using PCR, reverse transcription (RT)-PCR, and Western blotting, we confirmed the presence and functional expression of PhiCpn1 in C. pneumoniae strain AR39 and its absence in strain CWL029. Six addition...

متن کاملSeroepidemiology of chlamydia in Costa Rica.
A population-based study of the sero-epidemiology of chlamydia was performed among a nationally representative sample of 760 Costa Rican women aged 25 to 59 years. Interviews and sera collection were completed between September 1984 and February 1985. The overall seroprevalence of chlamydial antibodies among these women was 56.1%. Women 25 to 39 years of age had a seroprevalence of 51.1%, while...
متن کاملChlamydia pneumoniae and atherosclerotic risk in populations: the role of seroepidemiology.
While seroepidemiologic studies first suggested a possible association of prior infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae and atherosclerotic risk, the contribution of seroepidemiologic studies of C. pneumoniae and atherosclerotic risk remains a source of controversy, in part because the reported findings appear inconsistent. In general, cross-sectional studies of C. pneumoniae and atherosclerotic ri...
