Genetic characterization and risk factors for feline hemoplasma infection in semi-domesticated cats in Bangkok, Thailand [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2020
Background and Aim: Stray cats are a reservoir for various zoonotic diseases relevant to public health in Thailand. The vector-borne infection, hemoplasmosis, also known as infectious anemia, is one such disease carried by domestic and wild felids.

Ticks and tick-borne bacterial pathogens found on hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) on cattle in the Central River region of The Gambia. [PDF]

Med Vet Entomol
First detection of Ehrlichia minasensis, Anaplasma marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. in cattle in The Gambia. Identification of four tick species, with Hyalomma marginatum being the most common. 15.6% of ticks tested positive for tick‐borne pathogens, including Ehrlichia spp., A. marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp.

Detection and genetic characterization of "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemomacaque" infection among long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) in Thailand using broad-range nested polymerase chain reaction assay [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2021
Background and Aim: Hemoplasmas are defined as small, epicellular parasitic bacteria that can infect the red blood cells of several mammalian species. Diseases caused by these bacteria range from asymptomatic infections to acute hemolytic anemia. However,

Hemophagocytic syndrome in a cat with Mycoplasma haemofelis infection

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 320-323, June 2023., 2023
Abstract A six‐year‐old, castrated male domestic shorthair cat was presented for a week‐long history of lethargy, acute anorexia, and adipsia. On presentation, the cat was weak with pale mucous membranes, open‐mouth breathing, and mild popliteal lymphadenomegaly.

First Molecular Detection and Characterization of Hemotropic Mycoplasma Species in Cattle and Goats from Uganda

Animals, 2020
Hemoplasmas (hemotropic mycoplasmas) are small pleomorphic bacteria that parasitize the surface of red blood cells of several mammalian species including cattle, goats, and humans, causing infectious anemia.

Occurrence and bacterial loads of Bartonella and haemotropic Mycoplasma species in privately owned cats and dogs and their fleas from East and Southeast Asia

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 704-720, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Bartonella spp. and haemoplasmas are pathogens of veterinary and medical interest with ectoparasites mainly involved in their transmission. This study aimed at molecular detection of Bartonella spp. and haemoplasmas in cats (n = 93) and dogs (n = 96), and their related fleas (n = 189) from countries in East and Southeast Asia.

Associations between presence of Bartonella species deoxyribonucleic acid and complete blood cell count and serum biochemical changes in client‐owned cats

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 532-540, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Infection with Bartonella species is common in cats but reported effects of bacteremia on laboratory variables differ. Objectives Evaluate for associations between Bartonella bacteremia and CBC and serum biochemical changes in sick and healthy cats throughout the United States. Animals A total of 3964 client‐owned cats.

Risk of transmittable blood‐borne pathogens in blood units from blood donor dogs in Canada

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 1316-1324, May/June 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Canine blood donors can be infected by various vector‐borne or other pathogens that could be an important cause of morbidity and death in transfusion recipients. Hypothesis/Objectives To estimate and predict positivity to transmittable blood‐borne pathogens in blood units collected from blood donor dogs in Canada.

Occurrence and phylogenetic analysis of ‘Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum’ in wild felines from Paraná, Brazil

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2017
Hemoplasma infections are emerging and wild fauna can represent an important reservoir of these pathogens. However, there are very few epidemiological studies about the occurrence of hemoplasmas in wild cats around the world. The purpose of this study is
