Characterisation of Brucella species and biovars in South Africa between 2008 and 2018 using laboratory diagnostic data

Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Background Brucellosis is an infectious zoonotic bacterial disease of humans and other animals. In the Republic of South Africa (RSA), animal brucellosis is widespread and the current available data on the prevalence of this disease rely solely on ...

Brucellosis: Epizootiologic and diagnostic challenge [PDF]

, 2005
Although it has been known as a separate etiological entity for almost 150 years, brucellosis is, on a global scale, one of the most frequent diseases that is transferred from animals to humans. It is present as an endemic disease in almost all countries

Testicular abscesses due to Brucella melitensis

New Microbes and New Infections, 2018
Brucella may cause testicular masses, which may be confused with a testicular tumour. We present the case of a man with fever and oedema in the scrotum. Ultrasound and colour Doppler ultrasound with a 6 to 15 MHz high-frequency linear-array transducer was performed, revealing bilateral scrotal wall oedema, heterogeneous echo texture and slightly ...

Brucella abortus Inhibits SIRT1 to Modulate Intracellular Survival and Autophagy in Macrophages

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Brucella spp., the causative agents of brucellosis, are facultative intracellular pathogens lacking classical virulence factors, and the disease represents one of the most prevalent zoonoses worldwide. Nevertheless, Brucella efficiently modulates the expression of genes associated with host cellular metabolism and immune evasion. The SIRT1 protein is a

Brucella’s Emerging Threat: A Global Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis Revealing Temporal, Geographic and Species‐Specific Patterns of Antimicrobial Resistance

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) can lead to treatment failure in human bacterial infections, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Brucellosis is a globally significant zoonotic infection caused by Brucella spp. bacteria, yet the frequency and extent of AMR in Brucella populations from humans are poorly characterised.

Advice on animal and public health risks of insects reared on former foodstuffs as raw material for animal feed

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract In the coming decades, there is expected to be a sharply increased demand for dietary proteins for humans and animals. As a result, there is an increasing focus on reared insects as a new source of protein. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), the use of food chain residual flows such as former foodstuffs as

BLOC1S1 Attenuates B. Melitensis 16M LPS‐Triggered Autophagy by Spatial Confinement of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 45, December 4, 2025.
This study explores how B. melitensis 16M LPS and BLOC1S1 regulate autophagy in goat spermatogonial stem cells. The 16M LPS is activating AMPK‐dependent autophagy, increasing LC3B‐II/I ratios and lysosomal genes, while Escherichia coli LPS shows no effect.

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms

Drug 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 ...
