The first reported case of Bartonella endocarditis in Thailand
Bartonella species have been shown to cause acute, undifferentiated fever in Thailand. A study to identify causes of endocarditis that were blood culture-negative using routine methods led to the first reported case in Thailand of Bartonella endocarditis

Functional characterization of "Bartonella" effector protein - BepE during "in vivo" and "in vitro" infection [PDF]
The bartonellae is a family of gram-negative, fastidious, facultative intracellular, zoonotic bacteria. Most of the Bartonella species are highly adapted to establish asymptomatic bacteremia of their reservoir host within which the bacteria colonize ...

Bartonella spp. in Small Mammals and Their Fleas in Differently Structured Habitats From Germany
Most Bartonella spp. are transmitted by fleas and harbored by small mammals which serve as reservoirs. However, little is known about the composition of fleas and their Bartonella spp. from small mammals in Central Europe.

From FIC to BID : target identification and functional characterization of "Bartonella" effector proteins [PDF]
Pathogens belonging to the genus Bartonella employ a unique stealth infection strategy that involves evasion from the host immune system, replication in the endothelium and persistence in erythrocytes.

Molecular detection of Bartonella species in wild small mammals in western Yunnan Province, China
BackgroundSmall mammals serve as the main reservoir for Bartonella and as a proxy indicator of the potential risk of Bartonella transmission from nature to humans. They offer a valuable early warning for human infection.

The role of the VirB/VirD4/Bep system in "Bartonella henselae"-triggered vascular proliferation [PDF]
Bartonella henselae (Bh) rarely shows any symptoms in its feline reservoir host but is responsible for a number of clinical outcomes during infection of the human incidental host. Bh shares with B. quintana (Bq) and B.

New complete genome of the Bartonella apihabitans strain EK0718, obtained from Kazakhstan [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Bartonella apihabitans strain EK0718 is a notable nonpathogenic member of the Bartonella genus, distinguished by its absence from the core components of the bee microbiome.

Coinfection with Bartonella clarridgeiae and Bartonella henselae and with different Bartonella henselae strains in domestic cats [PDF]
Bartonella clarridgeiae and several strains of Bartonella henselae, the agent of cat scratch disease, with variations in the 16S rRNA gene have been found to infect the blood of cats. An epidemiologic study of Bartonella infection in domestic French cats revealed that of 436 cats sampled, 5 cats (1.1%) were coinfected with B.

Uncovering the transcriptional control of "Bartonella henselae" host adaptation factors [PDF]
A recurrent theme in bacterial pathogenicity is the understanding of the regulatory events necessary for a given pathogen to progress through its infection cycle while resisting the host defense mechanisms.
