Infections with the tick-borne bacterium Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2015 Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis, which has rodents as its natural hosts, is an emerging tick-borne pathogen in Europe and Asia. This intracellular bacterium causes the infectious disease neoehrlichiosis. Immunocompromised patients may contract a severe form of neoehrlichiosis with high fever and vascular/thromboembolic events.

Neoehrlichia mikurensis—An emerging opportunistic tick‐borne infection in immunosuppressed patients [PDF]
Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 293, Issue 6, Page 782-790, June 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Neoehrlichia mikurensis (N. mikurensis) is a newly discovered tick‐borne pathogen that can inflict life‐threatening illness in immunocompromised patients. N. mikurensis infection is only detectable by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based methodologies. We describe three distinct clinical manifestations of N.

High-throughput screening of tick-borne pathogens in Europe [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014 Due to increased travel, climatic, and environmental changes, the incidence of tick-borne disease in both humans and animals is increasing throughout Europe. Therefore, extended surveillance tools are desirable. To accurately screen tick-borne pathogens,
