IFN-I exacerbates the inflammatory response of epithelial cells to Chlamydia trachomatis infection by enhancing TLR3 expression

Chongfa Tang, Xiaonan Cai, Béatrice Niragire, Félix V. Louchez, Y Levy-Zauberman, Agathe Subtil, Yongzheng Wu

This study shows that IFN-I enhances TLR3 expression in epithelial cells, leading to increased inflammation during Chlamydia trachomatis infection.

Chlamydia-driven ISG15 expression dampens the immune response of epithelial cells independently of ISGylation

Yongzheng Wu, Chang Liu, Chongfa Tang, Béatrice Niragire, Y. Levy-Zauberman, Cindy Adapen, Thomas Vernay, Juliette Hugueny, Véronique Baud, Agathe Subtil

This study shows that ISG15 expression in epithelial cells infected with Chlamydia trachomatis reduces inflammation and bacterial load without requiring ISGylation.
