Geographical distribution of Bartonella spp in the countries of the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region (WHO-EMRO)

open access: yesJournal of Infection and Public Health
Bartonellosis is a vector-borne and zoonotic diseases in humans, especially in immunocompromised individuals. However, there is no complete data about the geographical distribution of different species of Bartonella, as well as the status of its ...

Molecular Detection and Genetic Diversity of Bat‐Associated Bartonella spp. in Bat Ectoparasites Collected From Ratchaburi Province, Thailand

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Bat ectoparasites collected from four insectivorous bat species were identified through mitochondrial gene analysis. This study provides the first evidence of bat‐associated Bartonella species in ectoparasites, including bat flies (Phthiridium sp., Raymondia sp.

Bacillary Angiomatosis in an HIV-positive Man with Multiple Risk Factors: A Clinical and Epidemiological Puzzle

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2005
A 36-year-old man with advanced AIDS presented with skin lesions, fever and weight loss. Physical examination revealed skin lesions suggestive of bacillary angiomatosis.

Altitude-dependent Bartonella quintana Genotype C in Head Lice, Ethiopia

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
To determine the presence of Bartonella quintana in head and body lice from persons in different locations in Ethiopia, we used molecular methods. B. quintana was found in 19 (7%) genotype C head lice and in 76 (18%) genotype A body lice. B.

Detection and Genetic Diversity of Heritable Bacterial Symbionts in Human Lice Based on 16S‐rRNA Gene

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Candidatus Riesia pediculicola and Wolbachia were found in 79.6% and 95.2% of head lice, and 81.8% and 100% of body lice. Candidatus Riesia pthiripubis and Wolbachia appeared in 41.7% and 75% of pubic lice. Maximum‐likelihood 16S‐rRNA phylogeny revealed substantial heterogeneity within symbiont populations. ABSTRACT Human lice are obligate bloodsucking

Evaluation of PCR Approaches for Detection of Bartonella bacilliformis in Blood Samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: The lack of an effective diagnostic tool for Carrion's disease leads to misdiagnosis, wrong treatments and perpetuation of asymptomatic carriers living in endemic areas.

Culture-negative endocarditis due to Bartonella quintana

open access: yesSouth African Medical Journal, 2016
Bartonella spp. was first described as a possible cause of culture-negative endocarditis in 1993, and has since emerged as a significant cause of this condition worldwide. We describe a complicated case of culture-negative endocarditis in an immune-competent male patient, which was confirmed on resected heart valves to have been caused by Bartonella ...

Five-Member Gene Family of Bartonella quintana [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 2003
ABSTRACT Bartonella quintana , the agent of trench fever and an etiologic agent of bacillary angiomatosis, has an extraordinarily high hemin requirement for growth compared to other bacterial pathogens. We previously identified the major hemin receptor of the pathogen as a 30-kDa surface protein, termed HbpA.

New Insights Into the Evolution of Immune Adaptors in Murid Rodents

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
TIR domain‐containing adaptors were evolved under purifying selection in murine. Positively selected sites were identified in Mal and Myd88 genes. Reduced genetic diversity of each adaptor gene was observed in two rat populations. Shared polymorphisms were common phenomena in rat adaptors.
