Contribution of Limited Molecular Testing to Low Ehrlichiosis Diagnosis in High Incidence Area, North Carolina, USA [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases
Indirect immunofluorescence antibody assays have been the primary method for laboratory diagnosis of ehrlichiosis. Detection of Ehrlichia spp. DNA by using PCR is now widely available through commercial laboratories. To prepare for Ehrlichia spp.

Non-Canonical Inflammasome Pathway: The Role of Cell Death and Inflammation in Ehrlichiosis

Cells, 2023
Activating inflammatory caspases and releasing pro-inflammatory mediators are two essential functions of inflammasomes which are triggered in response to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs).
