Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans associated with upper respiratory infections in cats and dogs.

Journal of Small Animal Practice, 2020
OBJECTIVES To describe infection in companion animals with the zoonotic pathogen Corynebacterium ulcerans and to determine its prevalence in clinically-affected and healthy animals. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clinical presentation and treatment of three

Proteins from the core genome of Corynebacterium ulcerans respond for pathogenicity and reveal promising vaccine targets for diphtheria.

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2021
Corynebacterium ulcerans is an emerging pathogen able to transmit the acute infection diphtheria to humans. Although there is a well-established vaccine based on the toxin produced by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, another species of this genus known to ...

Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis—General Aspects

2013
Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis are potentially diphtheria toxin -producing microorganisms related to different infectious processes involving both human and animal hosts. This chapter aims to concise the current aspects concerning to the pathogenesis, epidemiology of diseases caused by those

Corynebacterium ulcerans infection associated with untreated milk

Journal of Infection, 1984
Infection with Corynebacterium ulcerans has been previously reported in association with cows' milk. Further evidence that the disease is a zoonosis is given in this report of infection in a consumer of untreated milk. The organism was isolated from a sample of milk, and from two cows in a herd of 93 Jersey cattle.

Reliable differentiation of a non-toxigenic tox gene-bearing Corynebacterium ulcerans variant frequently isolated from game animals using MALDI-TOF MS.

Veterinary Microbiology, 2019
Corynebacterium (C.) ulcerans is a zoonotic member of the C. diphtheriae group and is known to cause abscesses in humans and several animal species. Toxigenic strains, expressing the tox gene encoding diphtheria toxin, are also able to cause diphtheria ...

'Corynebacterium ulcerans': a potential cause of diphtheria.

Communicable disease report. CDR review, 2000
Symptoms similar to those of diphtheria may occasionally be caused by micro-organisms other than Corynebacterium diphtheriae, such as zoonotic corynebacteria. A case of pharyngitis caused by toxigenic 'C. ulcerans' in a 9 year old girl illustrates the importance of including diphtheroids in the differential diagnosis.

ULCERATIVE LARYNGITIS DUE TO CORYNEBACTERIUM ULCERANS

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1931
Diphtheria, in its local manifestations, is essentially a capillary toxic process inducing necrosis of the affected tissue. This necrosis does not ordinarily lead to deep ulceration; the resulting inflammatory reaction induces the exudation of considerable fibrin, which, with the necrotic tissue and inflammatory cellular elements, forms a covering of ...
