Chlamydia trachomatis and anti-MUC1 antibodies and subsequent risk of high grade serous ovarian cancer; a population-based case-control study in Northern Sweden.
Background:Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) salpingitis causes inflammatory damage to the fallopian tube and could potentially cause initiation and progression of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC). Furthermore, C. trachomatis infection may stimulate mucin 1 (MUC1) protein production, pos...

Anti-MUC1 IgG and cHSP60 IgG levels were correlated (r = 0.169; p <0.001).Conclusions:The findings of this prospective nested case control study did not support an association between C. trachomatis infection, as measured by chlamydial serology, or anti-MUC1 IgG antibodies, and subsequent risk of HGSC.
