Immunoproteomic profiling of Rickettsia parkeri and Rickettsia amblyommii
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2015 Rickettsia parkeri is an Amblyomma-associated, spotted fever group Rickettsia species that causes an eschar-associated, febrile illness in multiple countries throughout the Western Hemisphere. Many other rickettsial species of known or uncertain pathogenicity have been detected in Amblyomma spp.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Norway rat ectoparasite burden varied by residential microhabitat, host traits, and trap type, showing that urban rodent management should address both rat burden and ectoparasite persistence in residential buildings. Abstract BACKGROUND Norway rats, Rattus norvegicus (Berkenhout), can carry ectoparasites of public health importance.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyJapanese 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

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Brain Pathology, 1997 In this review I shall try to provide a brief, up‐to‐date, account of the neuropathology of those viral and rickettsial diseases that are particularly prevalent in tropical regions. These diseases are not, however, exclusive to the tropics. Some, such as AIDS, are common in temperate regions as well, though others are closer to being exclusively ...

Tropism and Pathogenicity of Rickettsiae [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular parasitic bacteria that cause febrile exanthematous illnesses such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Mediterranean spotted fever, epidemic, and murine typhus, etc. Although the vector ranges of each Rickettsia species are rather restricted; i.e., ticks belonging to Arachnida and lice and fleas belonging to Insecta ...

The host calcium system contributes to intracellular Rickettsia pathogenesis
Infection and ImmunityBacteria in the genus Rickettsia are obligate intracellular parasites of the eukaryotic cytoplasm. Pathogenic Rickettsia species are exquisitely evolved to only proliferate within eukaryotic host cells, particularly within endothelial cells of the ...
