Examining the impact of the <i>Chlamydia muridarum</i> -induced synthesis of IFN-β during genital tract infection <sup>1</sup>

2026-03-24

Abstract excerpt

Chlamydia trachomatis infection of the female genital tract can result in severe reproductive sequelae, including pelvic inflammatory disease, tubal scarring, and infertility. Type I interferons have been implicated in both host defense and immunopathogenesis during chlamydial infection, with conflicting conclusions across experimental systems. However, the specific contributions of individual interferon subtypes...
