Chronic Chlamydia infection in human organoids increases stemness and promotes age-dependent CpG methylation
Chronic infections of the fallopian tubes with Chlamydia trachomatis can cause scarring and infertility. Here, the authors show that the pathogen alters stem cell differentiation and DNA methylation in human fallopian tube organoids, suggesting a potential link to cellular ageing and malignant trans...

| Sumario: | Chronic infections of the fallopian tubes with Chlamydia trachomatis can cause scarring and infertility. Here, the authors show that the pathogen alters stem cell differentiation and DNA methylation in human fallopian tube organoids, suggesting a potential link to cellular ageing and malignant transformation. |
