Health Assessment in Free‐Living Maned Wolves (Chrysocyon brachyurus) in Paraguay: Report of Three Cases

open access: yesCase Reports in Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus), the largest canid in South America, inhabits grasslands and dry forests in several countries, including Paraguay, where it faces threats such as habitat loss and fragmentation, roadkill, hunting, diseases transmitted by domestic animals, and fires.

Exotic Pets and Zoonotic Spillover Risk: Epidemiology and Antibacterial Resistance, a Rapid Systematic Review

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This rapid review aims to examine the potential zoonotic risks associated with exotic pets. This systematic review explores various aspects of zoonotic diseases and their transmission through exotic pets. We followed the PRISMA methodology, applying four inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Isolation of Bartonella henselae and Two New Bartonella Subspecies, Bartonellakoehlerae Subspecies boulouisii subsp. nov. and Bartonella koehlerae Subspecies bothieri subsp. nov. from Free-Ranging Californian Mountain Lions and Bobcats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Domestic cats are the natural reservoir of Bartonella henselae, B. clarridgeiae and B. koehlerae. To determine the role of wild felids in the epidemiology of Bartonella infections, blood was collected from 14 free-ranging California mountain lions (Puma ...

Livestock abundance predicts vampire bat demography, immune profiles, and bacterial infection risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human activities create novel food resources that can alter wildlife–pathogen interactions. If resources amplify or dampen, pathogen transmission probably depends on both host ecology and pathogen biology, but studies that measure responses to ...

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‐

High-throughput screening of tick-borne pathogens in Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Due to increased travel, climatic, and environmental changes, the incidence of tick-borne disease in both humans and animals is increasing throughout Europe. Therefore, extended surveillance tools are desirable. To accurately screen tick-borne pathogens (
