ABSTRACTChlamydia trachomatisis a Gram-negative obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen. It is the leading cause of bacterial sexually transmitted disease in the world, with more than 100 million new cases of genital tract infections withC. trachomatisoccurring each year. Animal models are indispensable for the study ofC. trachomatisinfections and the development and evaluation of candidate vaccines. In this paper, the most commonly used animal models to study female genital tract infections withC. trachomatiswill be reviewed, namely, the mouse, guinea pig, and nonhuman primate models. Additionally, we will focus on the more recently developed pig model.
