Figure 3

Metabolic activity of intracellular chlamydiae in infected monocytes and monocyte-derived DCs. Monocytes and monocyte-derived DCs were infected with C. trachomatis serovars Ba, D and L2 (MOI-3) and mock control. 16S rRNA gene copy numbers was determined by isolating RNA at the indicated time points, followed by real-time PCR as described in materials and methods. 16S rRNA fold change was normalized to 18S rRNA and determined by ddCt method with mock sample as reference gene. The mean of 3 independent experiments is shown and each experiment is pool of 2 donors. ***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05.
