Hemoplasmas and ticks in cattle from Somalia
Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) are small Gram-negative bacteria that parasitize red blood cells and can cause mild to severe anemia in a wide range of vertebrates, including ruminants. Cattle population in Somalia is around 3.9 million heads, with animals more concentrated around the river areas, mainly in the Juba River and Shabelle River ...

Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) in free-ranging bats from Southern Brazil
Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) are bacteria distributed worldwide and affect domestic and wildlife animals and human beings. Hemoplasmas have been described infecting hematophagous and non-hematophagous bats; however, transmission risk and zoonotic potential in vampire bats remain to be fully established. This study aimed to evaluate the presence

Molecular Detection of Hemoplasma in animals in Tamil Nadu, India and Hemoplasma genome analysis
Veterinary Research Communications, 2023Hemoplasma are small pleomorphic wall-less Gram-positive bacteria that infect erythrocytes of various mammalian hosts. They generally cause asymptomatic or chronic anaemia but occasionally causes overt life-threatening hemolytic anaemia. In the present study, 316 cattle, 115 sheep, 61 goats and 6 buffalo blood samples were collected from various ...

First detection of feline hemoplasmas in free-ranging jaguars ( Panthera onca ) [PDF]
Species of hemoplasmas have been described worldwide, but little information is available for wild felids. Between February 2000 and January 2010, blood samples were collected from 30 jaguars (Panthera onca) and 22 domestic cats (Felis catus) from the Cerrado, Pantanal and Amazon biomes of Brazil.

Hemoplasmas in Wild Canids and Felids in Brazil
Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2011Hemotropic mycoplasmas, epicellular erythrocytic bacterial parasites lacking a cell wall, are the causative agents of infectious anemia in numerous mammalian species. The presence of hemotropic mycoplasmas in blood samples of neotropical and exotic wild canids and felids from Brazilian zoos were recorded using molecular techniques.

From Haemobartonella to hemoplasma: Molecular methods provide new insights
Veterinary Microbiology, 2007Hemotropic mycoplasmas (aka hemoplasmas) are the causative agents of infectious anemia in numerous mammalian species. Originally known as Haemobartonella and Eperythrozoon species, these organisms have been reclassified within the genus Mycoplasma. The development of new molecular assays has expanded our knowledge of this heterogeneous group of agents ...

Identification, occurrence and clinical findings of canine hemoplasmas in southern Brazil
Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2014Hemoplasmas are ubiquitous pleomorphic and epicellular bacteria detected in erythrocytes in several species. In Brazil, studies on hemoplasmas have not included information on occurrence, clinical signs, and risk factors in dogs. This paper investigates the occurrence of hemoplasmas in dogs, focusing on risk factors and clinical status.

A molecular survey of hemoplasmas in domestic dogs from Turkey
Veterinary Microbiology, 2018Mycoplasma haemocanis (Mhc) and Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum (CMhp) are cell-wall-deficient bacterial pathogens that localize on the vertebrate erythrocyte surface. Prevalence of infection with these hemoplasmas and associated risks factors were ascertained from archived DNA samples collected from 621 domestic dogs (201 strays, 262 from shelters,

Hemotrophic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas): a review and new insights into pathogenic potential
Veterinary Clinical Pathology, 2004Abstract:The red cell parasites formerly known asHaemobartomllaandEperythrozoonspp have been reclassified as hemotrophic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) based on strong phylogenetic evidence and 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequences. The latter form the basis for polymerase chain reaction assays used to detect infection.Candidatusdesignation was given to ...
