Chlamydia trachomatis, an obligate intracellular bacterial species, is known to inhibit host cell apoptosis. However, the chlamydial antiapoptotic mechanism is still not clear. Because NF-kappaB activation is antiapoptotic, we tested the potential role of NF-kappaB activation in chlamydial antiapoptotic activity
