Detección molecular de Hepatozoon felis en gatos con anemia en Uruguay

Veterinaria (Montevideo), 2021
La Hepatozoonosis felina es una enfermedad parasitaria causada por Hepatozoon spp., que generalmente cursa de manera subclínica y cuando se manifiesta lo hace en asociación con una inmunodeficiencia inducida por una enfermedad concomitante. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar la presencia de Hepatozoon spp.

First autochthonous clinical case of Hepatozoon silvestris in a domestic cat in Italy with unusual presentation

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Hepatozoon spp. is the causative agent of a vector-borne parasitic disease in many animal species. In felids, Hepatozoon felis, Hepatozoon canis and Hepatozoon silvestris have been molecularly isolated.

Ticks, Fleas, and Harboured Pathogens from Dogs and Cats in Cyprus

Pathogens, 2022
Ticks and fleas are blood-sucking ectoparasites that cause irritation and anaemia to their hosts and act as vectors of pathogens (vector-borne pathogens, VBPs) of relevance for animal and human health.

Cytauxzoon europaeus, Babesia vulpes, and Hepatozoon felis circulating simultaneously in a European wildcat (Felis silvestris) population in northern Spain

Research in Veterinary Science
The Iberian population of the European wildcat (Felis silvestris) is undergoing a decline and is highly fragmented. This study aimed to determine the occurrence and identity of tick-borne parasites (piroplasms and Hepatozoon spp.) in Navarre, one of the strongholds for wildcats in Spain.

Molecular Detection, Epidemiology and Genetic Diversity of Babesia microti Infecting Wild Rodents

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Blood samples from 284 rodents captured across seven districts of Pakistan were screened for Babesia microti using 18S rRNA PCR. Overall prevalence was 12%, with infection detected in Rattus rattus, Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus. Phylogenetic analysis showed close similarity with global isolates.
