Analyses of Ehrlichia canis and a canine granulocytic Ehrlichia infection

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1992
Ehrlichia canis and canine granulocytic Ehrlichia sp. (CGE) infect canine monocytes and granulocytes, respectively. E. canis has been cultured in vitro and used to develop an immunofluorescence assay. CGE has not been cultured, and a serologic assay is not available. The sera of dogs infected with CGE were reported to react with E.

Antigenic characterization of ehrlichiae: protein immunoblotting of Ehrlichia canis, Ehrlichia sennetsu, and Ehrlichia risticii

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1992
In recent years a febrile illness apparently associated with tick bite in patients in the United States has been attributed to infection by an Ehrlichia species. This implication is based on serologic responses to E. canis, morphologic demonstration of ehrlichiae in clinical materials, and a single isolate distinct from E. canis which was obtained from

Infections with Babesia canis and Ehrlichia canis in dogs in Zimbabwe

Veterinary Record, 1993
Of 105 dogs examined at a veterinary hospital in Harare, Zimbabwe, 52 per cent had antibodies reactive with Ehrlichia canis in indirect fluorescent antibody tests, 26 per cent had Babesia canis parasites in peripheral blood smears and 17 per cent had both infections. None of the dogs with serological evidence of ehrlichiosis had typical E canis morulae

Ehrlichia canis and Tropical Canine Pancytopaenia

Research in Veterinary Science, 1972
Summary Ehrlichia canis was isolated from a military Jog with tropical canine pancytopaenia and experimental infections were studied in 34 dogs. All dogs developed a high fever. Overt clinical signs were more severe in Beagles than in mongreb, but the haemorrhages seen in naturally and experimentally infected Alsatians did not occur.

Identification of Ehrlichia canis in East Africa

Veterinary Record, 1976
Ehrlichia canis, the causative agent of canine ehrlichiosis or tropical canine pancytopaenia (TCP) has been identified in Kenya. Transmission studies to two dogs resulted in signs of ehrlichiosis including marked thrombocytopaenia, pyrexia, reduction in the packed cell volume and the presence of E canis in peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

Studies on Ehrlichia canis

Zentralblatt für Veterinärmedizin Reihe B, 2010
Summary The pathological anatomical findings are described in 10 dogs experimentally infected with Ehrlichia canis. The brains were characterized by endothelial, perivascular and glial proliferations, lymphoplasmacellular meningo-panencephalitis and chorioiditis.

Genetic diversity of Ehrlichia canis in Brazil

Veterinary Microbiology, 2013
Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis is a highly prevalent disease in Brazil, where the genetic diversity of Ehrlichia canis remains undefined. In this study, we used the TRP36 gene to examine the genetic diversity of E. canis strains from naturally infected dogs residing in five distinct geographic regions in Brazil. E. canis DNA was detected in 82/126 (65%)

Ehrlichial infection in Cameroonian canines by Ehrlichia canis and Ehrlichia ewingii

Veterinary Microbiology, 2005
Ehrlichia chaffeensis and Ehrlichia ewingii are agents of emerging human ehrlichioses in North America and are transmitted primarily by Amblyomma americanum ticks, while Ehrlichia canis is the globally distributed cause of canine monocytic ehrlichiosis (CME) and is transmitted by the brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus. Although E.

Ehrlichia canis Infection in a Child

Pediatrics, 1989
Ehrlichia canis is a tick-borne rickettsia that causes disease in animals throughout the world. Its importance as a human pathogen, however, has only recently been documented. We report a child with serologically proven ehrlichiosis, to highlight differential diagnosis, to expand the spectrum of dermatologic manifestations, and to provide the first ...

Ehrlichia canis-related polyarthritis in a dog

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1986
Ehrlichia canis-related polyarthritis was diagnosed in a 7-month-old Boxer. The diagnosis was based on intraneutrophilic morulae found in synovial fluid specimens, thrombocytopenia, a positive result for indirect fluorescent antibody testing for E canis, the presence on the dog of the known vector of E canis infection (Rhipicephalus sanguineus), and a ...
