Protection against CD95-Induced Apoptosis by Chlamydial Infection at a Mitochondrial Step
24 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Chlamydiae are obligate intracellular bacteria that infect human epithelial and myeloid cells. Previous work has established that chlamydiae are able to protect a cell against apoptosis induced by certain experimentally applied stimuli. Here we provide an analysis of this protective activity against the signal transduction during CD95-induced apoptosis. In HeLa cells overexpressing CD95, infection with Chlamydia...
