Molecular and Serological Detection of Coxiella burnetii in Small Ruminants in Northeastern Brazil. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
• Serology indicates that one‐third of the sheep and goats had previously been infected with Coxiella burnetii. • qPCR analysis revealed the ongoing presence of C. burnetii in all evaluated flocks, each with a previous history of reproductive disorders. • These results indicate the need for preventive measures and control of C.

Investigation of Coxiella burnetii distribution in a Scottish dairy cattle herd with history of stillbirths. [PDF]

Vet Rec
Abstract Background Coxiella burnetii is a bacterial pathogen that can cause abortion and reproductive disease in livestock. In the UK, C. burnetii affects many dairy cattle herds, although the infection dynamics are poorly understood. Our study was performed to investigate infection patterns within a dairy cattle herd in Scotland that had experienced ...

Phylogeography of Human and Animal Coxiella burnetii Strains: Genetic Fingerprinting of Q Fever in Belgium

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Q fever is a zoonotic disease caused by the bacteria Coxiella burnetii. Domestic ruminants are the primary source for human infection, and the identification of likely contamination routes from the reservoir animals the critical point to implement ...

Sensitive Detection of Antibodies in Patients with Acute Coxiella Burnetii Infection

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2022
Purpose: Coxiella burnetii bacteria cause a zoonotic disease called Q fever. Differentiation between acute and chronic Coxiella infection is possible via serological detection of specific antibodies against Coxiella surface lipopolysaccharides, which ...

Coxiella burnetii Phagocytosis Is Regulated by GTPases of the Rho Family and the RhoA Effectors mDia1 and ROCK [PDF]

, 2015
The GTPases belonging to the Rho family control the actin cytoskeleton rearrangements needed for particle internalization during phagocytosis. ROCK and mDia1 are downstream effectors of RhoA, a GTPase involved in that process.
