Inhibition of Chlamydia pneumoniae Replication in Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells by Gamma Interferon-Induced Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase Activity

Infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae, a human respiratory pathogen, has been implicated as a potential risk factor in atherosclerosis, possibly because the pathogen can exist in a persistent form similar to that described for Chlamydia trachomatis. The present study investigated whether gamma interfe...
