Ehrlichiosis: a review in human infection

Journal of Health Science and Medical Research (JHSMR), 2003
Ehrlichiosis is a zoonotic disease caused by intracellular bacteria. Disease transmission is via tick bite. There are two forms of human infection: human monocytic ehrlichiosis and human granulocytic ehrlichiosis.

Successful Treatment of Human Monocytic Ehrlichiosis with Rifampin

, 2020
Currently recommended treatment regimens for human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) include doxycycline or tetracycline. Antibiotic susceptibility studies demonstrate that rifampin has in vitro bactericidal activity against Ehrlichia.

Harnessing 50 years of tick population genetics: Choosing the right molecular tool for contemporary research

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2159-2177, November 2025.
Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting

The role of human awareness on the spatial patterns of the tick-borne disease human monocytic ehrlichiosis in Missouri.

, 2012
Human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME), a tick-borne disease that has recently surfaced in the United States, exists in regions where the tick vector population is established.

Prevalence and Sequence Analysis of Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Diseases in Stray Cats in Istanbul

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Istanbul, the largest metropolis in Türkiye, is home to a notable population of stray cats. While cats enrich the city's culture, they can also transmit various diseases, posing diagnostic challenges for clinicians. This study aimed to detect infections in stray cats using PCR and sequencing to identify Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Bartonella, Hepatozoon ...

Reestablishment of the Brown Dog Tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus (s.l.) in Chișinău, Moldova: A Case of Indoor Infestation

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
A rare indoor infestation by the brown dog tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus (s.l.) was documented in an urban home in Chișinău, Moldova. The ticks were found in an apartment with no recent travel history and minimal dog movement. This case highlights the risk of reestablishment of this species in temperate regions and emphasizes the importance of ongoing ...

Prevalence of vector‐borne pathogens Ehrlichia canis, Babesia spp. and Dirofilaria immitis in dogs in Townsville, far north Queensland

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 103, Issue 7, Page 430-432, July 2025.
Ehrlichia canis, Babesia spp. and Dirofilaria immitis are blood‐borne pathogens transmitted to dogs by arthropods. The aim of the current study was to investigate the prevalence of E. canis, Babesia spp. and D. immitis in domestic dogs, aged 6 months or older, in Townsville, in far north Queensland, Australia.

A Severe Clinical Case of Ehrlichia canis and Toxoplasma gondii in a Dog (With the First Morphological Detection of Tachyzoites in Peripheral Blood)

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
Vector‐borne pathogens (VBPs) are frequently identified in domestic dogs, particularly in endemic areas or in individuals lacking protection from anti‐feeding products. Diagnostic procedures in veterinary clinics for symptomatic animals primarily include rapid serological assays; however, more definitive, albeit time‐intensive tests typically require ...

Diversity of Ticks in the Caribbean Region and Detection of Their Pathogens Using BioMark Technology

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Introduction Ticks and the pathogens they transmit are widespread in Caribbean animal populations. There is; however, limited information on the diversity of ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TTBPs) in the region. This study aims to identify TTBPs across multiple Caribbean countries using a high‐throughput real‐time microfluidic PCR system.
