Deep-sequencing analysis of the mouse transcriptome response to infection with Brucella melitensis strains of differing virulence. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Brucella melitensis is an important zoonotic pathogen that causes brucellosis, a disease that affects sheep, cattle and occasionally humans. B. melitensis strain M5-90, a live attenuated vaccine cultured from B. melitensis strain M28, has been used as an

Brucella melitensis, B. neotomaeandB. ovisElicit Common and Distinctive Macrophage Defense Transcriptional Responses [PDF]

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 2009
Brucella spp. establish an intracellular replicative niche in macrophages, while macrophages attempt to eliminate the bacteria by innate defense mechanisms. Brucella spp. possess similar genomes yet exhibit different macrophage infections. Few B. melitensis and B.

Impact of B. melitensis Rev-1 vaccination on brucellosis prevalence

TURKISH JOURNAL OF VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES, 2015
TrAis-os-Montes e Alto Douro, in the northeastern region of Portugal, previously exhibited the highest brucellosis prevalence in the entire small ruminant population of Portugal. Consequently, a vaccination program of the whole population with Brucella melitensis Rev-1 was carried out from 2001 to 2004, and further compulsory Rev-1 vaccination of 3- to
