Human Coinfection with Bartonella henselae and Two Hemotropic Mycoplasma Variants Resembling Mycoplasma ovis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2010
ABSTRACT Two variants of an organism resembling the ovine hemoplasma, Mycoplasma ovis , were detected by PCR in blood samples from a veterinarian in Texas. Coinfection with similar variants has been described in sheep. This represents the first report of human infection with this organism. The veterinarian

Romiplostim for treatment of thrombocytopenia in dogs: A retrospective assessment and clinical outcomes

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 2158-2164, July/August 2024.
Abstract Background Romiplostim, a thrombopoietin analog, is commonly used to treat immune‐mediated thrombocytopenia (ITP) in humans, but its use in dogs remains limited. Objectives Evaluate the effects and adverse events of romiplostim administration in dogs with thrombocytopenia caused by various underlying diseases.

Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) in free-ranging bats from Southern Brazil

Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2020
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

A prospective cohort study to identify clinical diagnostic and prognostic markers of primary immune thrombocytopenia in dogs

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 1022-1034, March/April 2024.
Abstract Background Primary immune thrombocytopenia (pITP) in dogs presents a diagnostic challenge, and clinical markers of severity are lacking. Objectives Identify clinicopathologic features that differentiate pITP from secondary ITP (sITP) and markers related to bleeding severity, transfusion, and survival of dogs with pITP.

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.
