Anaplasma spp. in domestic ruminants: evidence of circulation and molecular analysis of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma capra in Slovakia [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
The geographic expansion of ticks in Europe has increased exposure to tick-borne pathogens, particularly Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the causative agent of anaplasmosis in humans and animals. The recently described A.

Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma ovis–Emerging Pathogens in the German Sheep Population [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
Knowledge on the occurrence of pathogenic tick-borne bacteria Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma ovis is scarce in sheep from Germany. In 2020, owners from five flocks reported ill thrift lambs and ewes with tick infestation.

The Roles of Contrasting Host Types on the Environmental Abundance of <i>Anaplasma phagocytophilum</i>, an Emerging Zoonotic Pathogen. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
In this study, we analysed data collected at 40 sites in the Northwest of Scotland (from 2018 to 2020) to quantify the relative contributions of hypothesised pathogen transmission hosts (deer and sheep) and non‐transmission hosts (birds and rodents) on the environmental abundance of ecotypes I and II of Anaplasma phagocytophilum. Our results add to our

Molecular Characterization and Prevalence of Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in Goat Population in Siirt Province From Türkiye. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study assessed the molecular prevalence and genetic characterization of Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in goats from Siirt using MSP4‐based PCR and sequencing; a high prevalence of A. ovis (52.0%) was detected with significant risk factor associations, while A. phagocytophilum was not identified; phylogenetic analysis showed that the

Immuno-Informatics Design of Multi-Epitope Vaccine Candidate Against <i>Anaplasma phagocytophilum</i> Using Major Surface Protein 4 (MSP-4) Antigen. [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Bovine anaplasmosis is an intracellular tick‐borne, non‐contagious disease caused by gram‐negative bacteria of the family Anaplasmataceae and order Rickettsia. Anaplasma phagocytophilum is the etiological agent for human granulocytic anaplasmosis associated with severe health implications in parts of Europe and the USA and ...

Molecular Detection and Phylogeny of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Related Variants in Small Ruminants from Turkey

Animals, 2021
Anaplasma phagocytophilum causes tick-borne fever in small ruminants. Recently, novel Anaplasma variants related to A. phagocytophilum have been reported in ruminants from Tunisia, Italy, South Korea, Japan, and China.

Molecular detection and phylogenetic characterization of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in brown bears (Ursus arctos) in Slovakia [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Wild animals play a crucial role in the maintenance of tick-borne pathogens, acting as reservoir and sentinel hosts within natural ecosystems. The ongoing expansion of tick populations across Europe has intensified the circulation of zoonotic tick-borne ...

Molecular Detection of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in Cats in Europe and Associated Risk Factors [PDF]

Animals
Infections with Anaplasma (A.) phagocytophilum in cats seem to be rare. The study aimed to determine whether infections in cats are underestimated and to identify the risk factors for infection.

Molecular survey of zoonotic Anaplasma phagocytophilum and genetic evidence of a putative novel Anaplasma species in goats from Taif, Saudi Arabia [PDF]

International Journal of One Health, 2019
Aim: Genus Anaplasma is of veterinary and public health importance, and its members utilize ruminants as key hosts in their epidemiology. To date, information about the occurrence and molecular identity of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and other Anaplasma ...

Molecular evidence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in olive baboons and vervet monkeys in Kenya

BMC Veterinary Research, 2021
Background Nonhuman primates (NHPs) play a significant role in zoonotic spill-overs, serving as either reservoirs, or amplifiers, of multiple neglected tropical diseases, including tick-borne infections.
