Plague: A Millenary Infectious Disease Reemerging in the XXI Century [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2017 Plague, in the Middle Ages known as Black Death, continues to occur at permanent foci in many countries, in Africa, Asia, South America, and even the USA. During the last years outbreaks were reported from at least 3 geographical areas, in all cases after tens of years without reported cases.

A single-dose F1-based mRNA-LNP vaccine provides protection against the lethal plague bacterium
Science Advances, 2023 Messenger RNA (mRNA) lipid nanoparticle (LNP) vaccines have emerged as an effective vaccination strategy. Although currently applied toward viral pathogens, data concerning the platform’s effectiveness against bacterial pathogens are limited.

Plague circulation and population genetics of the reservoir Rattus rattus: the influence of topographic relief on the distribution of the disease within the Madagascan focus. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013 BACKGROUND:Landscape may affect the distribution of infectious diseases by influencing the population density and dispersal of hosts and vectors. Plague (Yersinia pestis infection) is a highly virulent, re-emerging disease, the ecology of which has been ...

Bacterial profiling of White Plague Disease in a comparative coral species framework
ISME Journal, 2013 Coral reefs are threatened throughout the world. A major factor contributing to their decline is outbreaks and propagation of coral diseases. Due to the complexity of coral-associated microbe communities, little is understood in terms of disease agents ...

Yersinia pestis: the Natural History of Plague
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2020 The Gram-negative bacterium Yersinia pestis is responsible for deadly plague, a zoonotic disease established in stable foci in the Americas, Africa, and Eurasia. Its persistence in the environment relies on the subtle balance between Y.

Plague: Bridging gaps towards better disease control
Médecine et Maladies Infectieuses, 2018 After centuries of epidemics and more than a hundred years since the identification of the causative bacterium, very little is known about the plague dynamics in animal reservoirs, vectors and the changing vulnerabilities for humans. The recent plague epidemic in Madagascar in 2017 highlights these gaps existing within the knowledge of the disease ...

Potential role of viruses in white plague coral disease [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2013 Abstract White plague (WP)-like diseases of tropical corals are implicated in reef decline worldwide, although their etiological cause is generally unknown. Studies thus far have focused on bacterial or eukaryotic pathogens as the source of these diseases; no studies have examined the role of viruses.
