Bartonella Infection in Immunocompromised Hosts: Immunology of Vascular Infection and Vasoproliferation

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Most infections by genus Bartonella in immunocompromised patients are caused by B. henselae and B. quintana. Unlike immunocompetent hosts who usually develop milder diseases such as cat scratch disease and trench fever, immunocompromised patients, including those living with HIV/AIDS and posttransplant patients, are more likely to develop different and

JMM Profile: Bartonella bacilliformis: a forgotten killer

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 2022
Bartonella bacilliformis causes Carrión’s disease, an infectious disease present in rural Andean areas of Peru and Ecuador. The disease has an acute and a chronic phase called Oroya fever and Peruvian wart, respectively. Oroya fever is potentially

Genetic diversity, infection prevalence, and possible transmission routes of Bartonella spp. in vampire bats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Bartonella spp. are globally distributed bacteria that cause endocarditis in humans and domestic animals. Recent work has suggested bats as zoonotic reservoirs of some human Bartonella infections; however, the ecological and spatiotemporal patterns of ...

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.

Genome dynamics of Bartonella grahamii in micro-populations of woodland rodents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Rodents represent a high-risk reservoir for the emergence of new human pathogens. The recent completion of the 2.3 Mb genome of Bartonella grahamii, one of the most prevalent blood-borne bacteria in wild rodents, revealed a higher abundance of

ESCMID postgraduate technical workshop on intracellular bacteria: from biology to clinic. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Infection by intracellular bacteria can lead to several diseases in both veterinary and human medicine. Unfortunately, the biology of these intracellular bacteria is highly complex due to their interactions with their host cells.

In silico analysis of Pap31 from Bartonella bacilliformis and other Bartonella spp.

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2020
Pap31 is an outer membrane protein of Bartonella bacilliformis which is considered to be a potential antigenic candidate for the development of diagnostic tools. The present study aimed to compare Pap31 from B. bacilliformis with that of other Bartonella spp. The results showed the presence of at least 5 different B.
