Persistent chlyamdial infection in the testes : development of a successful vaccine strategy for males

男性是感染的宿主，迫切需要新的疫苗方法来控制年轻男性的衣原体感染。这项研究将对制定控制感染的干预措施至关重要，并将为操纵男性生殖道内免疫系统的战略提供信息，这些战略可能适用于其他性传播病原体。这些研究将有益于国家研究优先事项2下的澳大利亚人民的健康和福利，促进和保持良好的健康和健康的生活开始。

Males are a reservoir of infection and novel vaccine approaches to control Chlamydia infections in young men are needed urgently. This study will be essential for the development of interventions to control infection and will inform strategies for manipulating the immune system within the male reproductive tract that may be applied to other sexually transmitted pathogens. The studies will benefit the health and welfare of the Australian people under National Research Priority 2, promoting and maintaining good health and a healthy start to life.
