Genetic variation in Chlamydia trachomatis and their hosts: impact on disease severity and tissue tropism.

Future microbiology - 1 Sept 2013

Abdelsamed Hossam, Peters Jan, Byrne Gerald I

Abstract excerpt

Chlamydia trachomatis infections are a global health problem. This obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen comprises lymphogranuloma venereum (L1-L3), ocular (A-C) and genital (D-K) serovars. Although genetically similar, each serovar group differs in disease severity and tissue tropism through mechanisms that are not well understood. It is clear that host genetic differences also play a role in chlamydial...
