Persistence of Bartonella spp. stealth pathogens: from subclinical infections to vasoproliferative tumor formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bartonella spp. are facultative intracellular bacteria that typically cause a long-lasting intraerythrocytic bacteremia in their mammalian reservoir hosts, thereby favoring transmission by blood-sucking arthropods.

Multi-host Bartonella parasites display covert host-specificity even when transmitted by generalist vectors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Many parasites infect multiple sympatric host species and there is a general assumption that parasite transmission between co-occurring host species is commonplace.

Host‐Driven Genetic Diversity of Leptospira in the Americas: A Continental Perspective

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Leptospira is a genetically diverse genus of spirochetes comprising over 68 species, including several pathogenic taxa such as L. interrogans, L. santarosai, L. noguchii, and L. weilii. These bacteria infect a wide range of vertebrates, especially mammals, with infected animals serving as renal carriers that excrete the pathogen through urine.

Is Bartonella a Cause of Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis? A Case Study

open access: yesGastrointestinal Disorders, 2020
The etiology of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is unknown. I present a case which may be indicative of a causal link between Bartonella infection and PSC. The patient presented with complaints of abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea.

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

open access: yesDrug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Ecological dynamics of blacklegged ticks, vertebrate hosts, and associated zoonotic pathogens in northeastern forests

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Specific host‐tick interactions in temperate forest systems influence variation in density and infection prevalence of nymphal blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis). The density of infected nymphs (DIN), which is the product of nymphal infection prevalence (NIP) and density of questing nymphs (DON), influences the risk of human exposure to tick‐

Evidence of Bartonella spp., Rickettsia spp. and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in domestic, shelter and stray cat blood and fleas, Portugal. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Thirty-two fleas were collected from 18 Lisboncats, 29 of which (90.6%) were C. felis, one (3.1%)was C. canis and two (6.3%) were unidentifiable. Only C. felis fleas were infected, six (40.0%)withB. clarridgeiae and six (40.0% ) with R. felis; three(20.0%

Insect and Mice Infestations in Gaza Displacement Camps: A Field‐Based Study on Vector‐Borne Diseases Amid the 2023–2025 Gaza War

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT Conflict‐driven destruction in Gaza has caused water and sanitation collapse, leading to infestations of rodents and insects, escalating public health risks among displaced populations. ABSTRACT The current study investigates the severe environmental and public health impacts resulting from the ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip ...
