Expanding the Universe of Hemoplasmas: Multi-Locus Sequencing Reveals Putative Novel Hemoplasmas in Lowland Tapirs (Tapirus terrestris), the Largest Land Mammals in Brazil

Microorganisms, 2022
The lowland tapir (Tapirus terrestris) is the largest land mammal in Brazil and classified as a vulnerable species, according to the assessment of the risk of extinction. The present study aimed at investigating the occurrence and genetic diversity of hemoplasmas in free-ranging T. terrestris from the Brazilian Pantanal and Cerrado biomes.

Use of Immunosuppression, Romiplostim, and Splenectomy to Achieve Remission in a British Shorthair Cat With Primary Immune‐Mediated Thrombocytopenia

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
ABSTRACT A 2‐year‐old female spayed British Shorthair cat was diagnosed with immune‐mediated thrombocytopenia (ITP) after presenting with a 3‐week history of gastrointestinal bleeding and anemia. Treatment with an immunosuppressive dose of glucocorticoids was initiated, but relapse occurred within 3 weeks.

Prevalence and Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Mycoplasma bovis Isolates From Bulk Tank Milk of Dairy Farms in Tennessee, USA

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Mycoplasma bovis mastitis is an important disease of dairy cows that causes substantial economic losses. However, its prevalence in different states in the United States (US), including Tennessee, is not well known. Furthermore, recent studies showed a high prevalence of bovine hemotropic mycoplasmas in US dairy farms.

Bartonella species in dromedaries and ruminants from Lower Shabelle and Benadir regions, Somalia

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 71, Issue 5, Page 568-577, August 2024.
Abstract Background Bartonellosis, caused by bacteria of the genus Bartonella, is a zoonotic disease with several mammalian reservoir hosts. In Somalia, a country heavily reliant on livestock, zoonotic diseases pose significant public health and economic challenges.

Mycoplasma haemocanis – the canine hemoplasma and its feline counterpart in the genomic era [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2012
Mycoplasma haemocanis is a hemotrophic mycoplasma (hemoplasma), blood pathogen that may cause acute disease in immunosuppressed or splenectomized dogs. The genome of the strain Illinois, isolated from blood of a naturally infected dog, has been entirely sequenced and annotated to gain a better understanding of the biology of M. haemocanis.

Galleria mellonella Invertebrate Model Mirrors the Pathogenic Potential of Mycoplasma alligatoris within the Natural Host

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Most mycoplasmal infections result in chronic, clinically silent disease. In direct contrast, Mycoplasma alligatoris elicits a fulminant, multisystem disease in the natural host, Alligator mississippiensis (American alligator). The goals of the study were to better understand the disease in the natural host and to determine if the invertebrate model G.

Use of pan-hemoplasma PCR for screening horses highly exposed to tick bites from southern Brazil

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2015
Mycoplasma sp. are hemotropic bacteria of red blood cells and the causative agent of hemoplasmosis. Diagnosis of infection is reached by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR (qPCR) of the 16S RNA gene of this bacteria.
