Bartonella Infections in Cats and Cat Fleas in Lithuania [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
Bartonella are vector-borne parasitic bacteria that cause zoonotic infections in humans. One of the most common infections is cat-scratch disease caused by Bartonella henselae and Bartonella clarridgeiae.

Bartonella infections in three species of Microtus: prevalence and genetic diversity, vertical transmission and the effect of concurrent Babesia microti infection on its success [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Bartonella spp. cause persistent bacterial infections in mammals. Although these bacteria are transmitted by blood-feeding arthropods, there is also evidence for vertical transmission in their mammalian hosts.

Bartonella spp. Infections Identified by Molecular Methods, United States [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
Molecular methods can enable rapid identification of Bartonella spp. infections, which are difficult to diagnose by using culture or serology. We analyzed clinical test results of PCR that targeted bacterial 16S rRNA hypervariable V1–V2 regions only or ...

Bartonella infections are rare in blood-fed Ixodes scapularis and Ixodes pacificus ticks collected from rodents in the United States [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background Ixodes scapularis and Ixodes pacificus are important vectors of multiple pathogens in the United States. However, their role in transmission of Bartonella spp., which are commonly reported in rodents and fleas, has been debated.

Bartonella spp. Infections, Thailand

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
Pour l'éditeur : Bartonella sont des bactéries hémotropes à Gram négatif fastidieuses avec une distribution mondiale. En Thaïlande, des espèces de Bartonella ont été mises en évidence chez des hôtes mammifères, notamment des rongeurs, des chats et des chiens, et chez des vecteurs potentiels, notamment des puces (1–4).

Sickle cell disease and Bartonella spp. infection

Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2012
Sickle cell disease is the most common hereditary hematologic disorder in the world. Painful vaso-occlusive crises are the hallmark of the disease and it is difficult to treat. Chronic infection is related to a higher painful crisis rate in these patients. Bartonella spp. are fastidious bacteria of zoonotic transmission.
