Dissemination of bloodmeal acquired Rickettsia felis in cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2013
Cat fleas, Ctenocephalides felis, are known biological vectors for Rickettsia felis. Rickettsial transmission can be vertical via transovarial transmission within a flea population, as well as horizontal between fleas through a bloodmeal. The previously undescribed infection kinetics of bloodmeal-acquired R. felis in cat fleas provides insight into the

First detection of Rickettsia felis in Ctenocephalides felis fleas from Italy [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009
Members of the genus Rickettsia are commonly associated with haematophagous arthropods such as ticks, fleas or lice. Rickettsia felis is a bacterium belonging to the spotted fever group of the genus Rickettsia. It was first detected by Adams et al. in 1990 [1] in the midgut cells of a cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis), and was later described as a new ...

Unravelling the biochemical aspects of the interaction between ticks and Leishmania using a tick cell line

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Leishmania infantum propagated in IDE8 tick cell line in vitro. L. infantum reduces tick cell viability and induces reactive oxygen species production. Lipidic profile of IDE8 tick cell line is altered during Leishmania infection. Abstract Leishmaniasis comprises a group of vector‐borne neglected tropical diseases caused by species of the obligatory ...

Rickettsiales in South America: A Systematic Review of Their Molecular Detection and Distribution in Arthropods and Vertebrates

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Bacteria of the order Rickettsiales comprise a diverse group of obligate intracellular microorganisms that are globally distributed and highly prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions. In South America, these bacteria have been associated with arthropod vectors, such as ticks, fleas, mites, lice, and certain dipterans, as well as with a ...
