Identification of collaborative cross mouse strains susceptible to chlamydial induction of hydrosalpinx
2026-02-07
Abstract excerpt
Sexually transmitted infection with Chlamydia trachomatis can cause pathology, such as hydrosalpinx, in the upper genital tract, leading to infertility. To investigate how genetic variation affects chlamydial pathogenicity, we screened five strains of Collaborative Cross (CC) mice for susceptibility to intravaginal infection and hydrosalpinx induction by C. muridarum , a mouse-adapted chlamydial species used ext...
