TLR2 and Nod2 Mediate Resistance or Susceptibility to Fatal Intracellular Ehrlichia Infection in Murine Models of Ehrlichiosis [PDF]

, 2013
Our murine models of human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) have shown that severe and fatal ehrlichiosis is due to generation of pathogenic T cell responses causing immunopathology and multi-organ failure.

Effect of storage on the nitro blue tetrazolium reduction test in dog blood samples

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 596-600, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction The nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction test (NBTT) has been used for measuring the metabolic activity of phagocytes of mammals. Activated neutrophils transform NBT into formazan in the cytoplasm. The NBTT can detect the activation of neutrophils in peripheral blood and is used to assess neutrophil function in dogs.

Ehrlichiosis‐Associated Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis: A Case Series and Review of the Literature

Case Reports in Hematology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. Human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) is a potentially life‐threatening tick‐borne illness. HME‐associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare entity with a paucity of published literature regarding treatment and outcome. We present the clinical features, treatment, and outcomes of 4 patients at our institutions with HME ...
