RICKETTSIAE (AS ORGANISMS)

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1969
Although most pathogenic rickettsiae are obligate intracellular parasites, it is clear that they are bacteria. As such, form and function in rickettsiae are closely similar to form and function found in their free-living counterparts. This review of rickettsiae as bacteria portrays the broad similarities of rickettsiae and free-living bacteria, as well

Survey of Rickettsia species in hematophagous arthropods from endemic areas for Japanese spotted fever in China

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Japanese spotted fever (JSF) is caused by Rickettsia japonica, mainly vectored by hard ticks. However, whether R. japonica can be transmitted by other arthropods remains unknown. Moreover, it is of interest to investigate whether other Rickettsia species

Significant Growth by Rickettsia Species within Human Macrophage-Like Cells Is a Phenotype Correlated with the Ability to Cause Disease in Mammals

Pathogens, 2021
Rickettsia are significant sources of tick-borne diseases in humans worldwide. In North America, two species in the spotted fever group of Rickettsia have been conclusively associated with disease of humans: Rickettsia rickettsii, the causative agent of ...

Survey of vector-borne agents in feral cats and first report of Babesia gibsoni in cats on St Kitts, West Indies [PDF]

, 2017
Background: As there is little data on vector-borne diseases of cats in the Caribbean region and even around the world, we tested feral cats from St Kitts by PCR to detect infections with Babesia, Ehrlichia and spotted fever group Rickettsia (SFGR) and

Diversity of Anaplasma phagocytophilum Strains, USA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
We analyzed the structure of the expression site encoding the immunoprotective protein MSP2/P44 from multiple Anaplasma phagocytophilum strains in the United States. The sequence of p44ESup1 had diverged in Ap-variant 1 strains infecting ruminants.
