Protective cytotoxic T lymphocytes are induced during murine infection with <i>Chlamydia trachomatis</i>.

1994-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Abstract T cell responses are often an important component in immunity to organisms that replicate intracellularly. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) recognition of peptide Ag in the context of MHC class I molecules results in lysis of infected cells and the release of cytokines including IFN-gamma. Members of the genus Chlamydia are obligate intracellular pathogens that cause blindness and sexually transmitted disease...
