National Surveillance of Human Ehrlichiosis Caused by Ehrlichia ewingii, United States, 2013–2021 [PDF]
Human ehrlichiosis is a potentially fatal tickborne disease caused by 3 species: Ehrlichia chaffeensis, E. ewingii, and E. muris eauclairensis. In the United States, 234 confirmed cases of E. ewingii ehrlichiosis were reported to the Centers for Disease

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

Prevalence of vector‐borne pathogens Ehrlichia canis, Babesia spp. and Dirofilaria immitis in dogs in Townsville, far north Queensland [PDF]
Ehrlichia canis, Babesia spp. and Dirofilaria immitis are blood‐borne pathogens transmitted to dogs by arthropods. The aim of the current study was to investigate the prevalence of E. canis, Babesia spp. and D. immitis in domestic dogs, aged 6 months or older, in Townsville, in far north Queensland, Australia.

Neurological manifestations of ehrlichiosis among a cohort of patients: prevalence and clinical symptoms [PDF]
Background Ehrlichiosis is a potentially fatal tick-borne disease that can progress to involve the central nervous system (CNS) (i.e., neuro-ehrlichiosis), particularly in cases where diagnosis and treatment are delayed.

Evaluation of a newly developed rapid ELISA to detect anti-Ehrlichia canis antibodies in dogs [PDF]
Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis (CME) is a globally prevalent disease with zoonotic potential primarily caused by the obligate intracellular bacterium Ehrlichia canis, transmitted by the ticks Rhipicephalus spp. to vertebrate hosts.

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

Simple Summary In dogs, ehrlichiosis is caused by three Ehrlichial species, namely Ehrlichia canis, E. ewingii, and E. chaffeensis; however, E. canis is the pathogen that most affects platelets, monocytes, and granulocytes.

Oxidative Stress Evaluation in Dogs Affected with Canine Monocytic Ehrlichiosis
The study aimed to evaluate the concentration of reactive oxidative metabolites (R-OOHs), the antioxidant barrier (OXY), and the ratio between R-OOHs and OXY (OSi) and thiol groups of plasma compounds (SHp) in in canine monocytic ehrlichiosis.
