Mitochondrial fusion protein 2 affects intracellular survival of brucella abortus a19 by regulating endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis [PDF]
Mitochondrial fusion protein 2 (MFN2) deficiency has been shown to hinder the survival of bacteria in macrophages. Endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis are vital defense mechanisms against Brucella infection, but the specific role of MFN2 in ...

Integrating serological and genetic data to quantify cross-species transmission: brucellosis as a case study [PDF]
Epidemiological data are often fragmented, partial, and/or ambiguous and unable to yield the desired level of understanding of infectious disease dynamics to adequately inform control measures.

Effects of live Brucella abortus strain 19 vaccine on reindeer
Twenty female and seven male reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) were vaccinated subcutaneously in the right shoulder with a 1-ml dose of approximately 1.2 x 108 colony forming units of Brucella abortus strain 19, the standard reduced dose for cattle.

Antigen-specific acquired immunity in human brucellosis: implications for diagnosis, prognosis, and vaccine development. [PDF]
Brucella spp., are Gram negative bacteria that cause disease by growing within monocyte/macrophage lineage cells. Clinical manifestations of brucellosis are immune mediated, not due to bacterial virulence factors.

The HWE‐family histidine kinase PhyK regulates the cell envelope structure of the intracellular pathogen Brucella ovis and affects how the host immune system responds to this bacterium. Deletion of phyK alters bacterial survival in the face of detergent stress and reduces immune activation in infected macrophages.

Regulation of Brucella abortus Catalase [PDF]
ABSTRACT All aerobic organisms have mechanisms that protect against oxidative compounds. Catalase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione, and thioredoxin are widely distributed in many taxa and constitute elements of a nearly ubiquitous antioxidant metabolic strategy.

Interleukin 10 suppresses lysosome-mediated killing of Brucella abortus in cultured macrophages
Brucella abortus is a Gram-negative zoonotic pathogen for which there is no 100% effective vaccine. Phagosomes in B. abortus–infected cells fail to mature, allowing the pathogen to survive and proliferate. Interleukin 10 (IL10) promotes B.
