Molecular Detection of Feline Hemoplasmas in Feral Cats in Korea

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2007
The purpose of this study was to determine if Mycoplasma haemofelis, 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum' exist in Korea. Three hundreds and thirty one feral cats were evaluated by using PCR assay targeting 16S rRNA gene sequence. Fourteen cats (4.2%) were positive for M. haemofelis, 34 cats (10.3%) were positive for 'Candidatus M. haemominutum' and 18

Novel Rickettsia spp. in two common overwintering North American songbirds

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
American robins and dark-eyed juncos migrate across North America and have been found to be competent hosts for some bacterial and viral pathogens, but their contributions to arthropod-borne diseases more broadly remain poorly characterized.

A general framework for modeling pathogen transmission in co‐roosting host communities

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Cross‐species transmission of pathogens can be facilitated by frequent contact among wildlife. Cross‐species transmission is often driven by phylogenetic similarity between host species, but the role this plays when multiple host species co‐roost is unknown.

Prevalence and risk factor analysis of haemoplasmas infection in cats from Lahore (Pakistan) [PDF]

, 2020
Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) are obligate Gram-negative bacteria that target red blood cells, and infect a wide range of hosts including cats, dogs, domestic ruminants, pigs, rodents and humans.

MOLECULAR INVESTIGATION OF HEMOTROPIC MYCOPLASMAS IN HUMAN BEINGS, DOGS AND HORSES IN A RURAL SETTLEMENT IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2015
SUMMARY The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of hemoplasmas in a rural Brazilian settlement's population of human beings, their dogs and horses, highly exposed to tick bites; to identify the tick species parasitizing dogs and horses ...

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.

Levantamento molecular de micoplasma hemotrópico em mão-pelada (Procyon cancrivorus) do sul do Brasil [PDF]

, 2023
Hemoplasmas are non-cultivable bacterial parasites of erythrocytes that infect domestic and wild animals, as well as humans. Their means of transmission and pathogenesis remain contentious issues and difficult to evaluate in wild animals.

Co-infection of Cytauxzoon felis, Mycoplasma haemofelis, and the feline immunodeficiency virus in a domestic cat in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil [PDF]

, 2023
Cytauxzoon felis is a hemoparasite capable of infecting domestic and wild cats. Studies suggest that wild cats are the main reservoirs of the protozoan, and transmission occurs through the bite of an infected tick.
