Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis inoculated by any mucosal route colonized multiple murine mucosae and, in most cases, the spleen, liver, and kidneys. Cell-to-cell transmission, systemic dissemination, and autoinoculation of infectious fluids may have contributed to chlamydial spread. Intermucosal trafficking of protective T cells cannot be accurately evaluated by using live chlamydial challenges.Entities:
