Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L1 injected intravenously in mice resulted in systemic nonlethal infections of the animals. Treatment of mice with recombinant murine gamma interferon resulted in a decrease in the number of infectious C. trachomatis organisms recovered from the lungs, spleens, and livers as well as in a decrease of the inflammatory reaction in those organs when assessed 3 and 5 days after challenge.
