Organism Chlamydia trachomatis |
Structure and strains Chlamydia trachomatis, commonly known as chlamydia, is a bacterium that causes chlamydia, which can manifest in various ways, including: trachoma, lymphogranuloma venereum, nongonococcal urethritis, cervicitis, salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease. C. trachomatis is the most common infectious cause of blindness and the most common sexually transmitted bacterium. Different types of C. trachomatis cause different diseases. The most common strains cause disease in the genital tract, while other strains cause disease in the eye or lymph nodes. Like other Chlamydia species, the C. trachomatis life cycle consists of two morphologically distinct life stages: elementary bodies and reticulate bodies. Elementary bodies are spore-like and infectious, whereas reticulate bodies are in the replicative stage and are seen only within host cells. |
Disease Pathogens Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the most common sexually transmitted bacterial pathogens. Depending on the serovar, the may infect epithelial cells of the urogenital and respiratory tract as well as the conjunctiva. Chlamydia trachomatis infections may be asymptomatic in 70% of females and in up to 50% of males. Untreated, infections may result in serious damage and complications. The serovars A to C cause ceratoconjunctivits. Chronic infections during childhood can result in trachoma or blindness. Serovars D to K are pathogens of the urogenital tract, responsible for urethritis, proctitis and cervicitis. Salpinigits, endomitritis and perihepatitis are frequently the consequence of untreated cervicitis. Occasionally, tubal obstructions and ectopic pregnancy, which belong to the most common reasons for infertility in women, may occur. Furthermore, the risk of a premature delivery for infected pregnant women is also increased. In addition to urethritis, epidiymitis and prostatitis, which may lead to infertility, are possible consequences for men. |
Detection and diagnosis Following an urogenital infection, the pathogen may migrate to the upper genital tract. This can cause difficulties in direct pathogen detection via cell culture or PCR. In such cases, serological analysis is essential for the diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis infections. Formerly, the Microimmunofluorescence test (MIF) has been accepted as the reference method. More recently, standardized and automated ELISA tests are used in routine laboratories. |
