Clonal T Cell Proliferation Induced by Acute Anaplasmosis in a Dog
ABSTRACT A 4‐year‐old spayed female Golden Retriever was examined for hindlimb lameness, lethargy, poor appetite, and pyrexia 3 weeks after the removal of numerous ticks. Complete blood count revealed moderate thrombocytopenia and mild lymphopenia. A SNAP 4Dx test was negative for Borrelia burgdorferi, Ehrlichia spp., Anaplasma spp., and Dirofilaria ...

Development of Reference Intervals for the TEG 6s, a Point‐of‐Care Viscoelastic Assay, in Dogs
ABSTRACT Background Thromboelastography (TEG) provides a global assessment of hemostasis and identifies patients with both hemorrhagic and thrombotic tendencies. Traditional TEG instruments, such as the TEG 5000 (Haemonetics), can be labor‐intensive and require specialized training to operate.

Owing to the sanitary importance of the tick Amblyomma parvum, this study evaluated the infection by Ehrlichia, Anaplasma and Rickettsia species of questing A. parvum collected in northwestern Argentina. Our results showed that A. parvum ticks in this region are infected with the recently reported Ehrlichia sp.

Rickettsia spp. and Anaplasmataceae in Ticks From Domestic Animals in Northern Colombia
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick‐borne diseases have a significant impact on public and animal health and represent a considerable financial burden on livestock farming. However, in many regions of Latin America, comprehensive epidemiological data, including species identification, geographical distribution and molecular profiling of ticks and their ...

Coordinated Regulation of Extrafollicular B Cell Responses by IL‐12 and IFNγ
ABSTRACT Upon activation, B cells undergo either the germinal center (GC) or extrafollicular (EF) response. While GC are known to generate high‐affinity memory B cells and long‐lived plasma cells, the role of the EF response is less well understood. Initially, it was thought to be limited to that of a source of fast but lower‐quality antibodies until ...

Investigation of the Blood Microbiome in Horses With Fever of Unknown Origin
ABSTRACT Background Fever of unknown origin (FUO) without a respiratory component is a frequent clinical presentation in horses. Multiple pathogens, both tick‐borne and enteric, can be involved as etiologic agents. An additional potential mechanism is intestinal barrier dysfunction.

A total of 167/394 (42.4%) raccoons were positive for Candidatus Neoehrlichia procyonis. Spatial variation was noted with higher prevalences in the Southeast region of the United States and in California. Ca. N. procyonis is widespread in raccoon populations, but the spatial variation in prevalence may be related to vector distribution or another ...
