Insights into the Gene Expression Profile of Uncultivable Hemotrophic Mycoplasma suis during Acute Infection, Obtained Using Proteome Analysis [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2012 ABSTRACTHemotrophic mycoplasmas, bacteria without cell walls whose niche is the erythrocytes of their hosts, have never been cultivatedin vitro. Therefore, knowledge of their pathogenesis is fundamental.Mycoplasma suisinfects pigs, causing either acute fatal hemolytic anemia or chronic low-grade anemia, growth retardation, and immune suppression ...

Feline blood donation: Description and adverse reactions from 29 201 donation events between 2019 and 2023 [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 3050-3062, November/December 2024.Abstract Background Feline blood transfusion is required for the treatment of various illnesses in cats, and the safety of donor cats is vital. Donor adverse reactions can include cardiorespiratory, venepuncture‐related, and behavioral abnormalities. Hypothesis/Objectives To describe a large number of feline blood donation events and document use of ...

Hemoplasma Infection in HIV-positive Patient, Brazil [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008 Hemotrophic mycoplasmas infect a variety of mammals. Although infection in humans is rarely reported, an association with an immunocompromised state has been suggested. We report a case of a Mycoplasma haemofelis–like infection in an HIV-positive patient

Hemotrophic mycoplasma in Simmental cattle in Bavaria: prevalence, blood parameters, and transplacental transmission of 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos' and Mycoplasma wenyonii. [PDF]
Acta Vet Scand, 2018 The significance of hemotrophic mycoplasma in cattle remains unclear. Especially in Europe, their epidemiological parameters as well as pathophysiological influence on cows are lacking. The objectives of this study were: (1) to describe the prevalence of 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos' ('C. M. haemobos') and Mycoplasma wenyonii (M.

Complete genome sequence of the hemotrophic Mycoplasma suis strain KI3806. [PDF]
J Bacteriol, 2011 ABSTRACT Mycoplasma suis , a member of the hemotrophic mycoplasma (HM) group, parasitize erythrocytes of pigs. Increasing evidence suggests that M. suis is also a zoonotic agent. Highly pathogenic strains of M. suis (e.g., M.

Hemotrophic Mycoplasmas Induce Programmed Cell Death in Red Blood Cells [PDF]
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2011 Hemotrophic mycoplasmas (HM) are uncultivable bacteria found on and in the red blood cells (RBCs). The main clinical sign of HM infections is the hemolytic anemia. However, anemia-inducing pathogenesis has not been totally clarified. In this work we used the splenectomized pig as animal model and Mycoplasma suis as a representative for hemotrophic ...

Molecular detection of bovine hemotrophic mycoplasmas in Mexico
Revista del Centro de Investigación de la Universidad la Salle, 2020 The presence of hemoplasmas Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos and Mycoplasma wenyonii that infect bovine cattle has been reported during the last years. Hemoplasmas may affect animal health either alone or in coinfections with other microorganisms, resulting in anemia and other clinical signs. In Mexico, only Ca. M.
