Antibodies to Rickettsia conorii in dogs: Seasonal differences

European Journal of Epidemiology, 1993
Eight dogs, having showed positivity to Rickettsia conorii in serum samples obtained during the spring and summer, were studied again by means of a second determination during the next winter, 4-10 months later. Serum titer became negative in six dogs, persisted high in one, and fell from 1:640 to 1:40 in another dog.

Atypical Papulovesicular Rash Due to Infection with Rickettsia conorii [PDF]

open access: possibleClinical Infectious Diseases, 1992
We present an unusual case of Rickettsia conorii infection that was associated with cutaneous papulovesicular lesions on a patient who had returned from the bushveld of South Africa. The lesions were diffusely scattered across the trunk, extremities, and both palms.

Expression of green fluorescent protein in Rickettsia conorii

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2002
Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular class III pathogens for which genetic manipulation has only recently been shown to be feasible. Such experiments were restricted to the typhus group rickettsiae, namely R. typhi and R. prowazekii. Here we report the first genetic manipulation of Rickettsia conorii, the bacterial agent responsible for the ...

First molecular evidence of Rickettsia conorii subsp. raoultii from Rhipicephalus linnaei (Acari: Ixodidae) infesting pet rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus domesticus) (Lagomorpha: Leporidae) in Peninsular Malaysia

Journal of medical entomology
A total of 68 adult hard ticks were recovered from 5 cases of infestation involving pet rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus domesticus) in Malaysia. The ticks were later identified as the tropical brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus linnaei (Audouin, 1826 ...

Prevalence of Rickettsia conorii and Rickettsia typhi infections in the population of northern Greece.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2002
Seroepidemical surveys concerning the prevalence of Rickettsia conorii and Rickettsia typhi have never been studied in northern Greece. We examined 1,584 sera samples from residents of northern Greece for the detection of antibodies to R. conorii and to R. typhi by means of immunofluorescence assay.

Role of ixodid ticks in circulation of Rickettsia conorii and other spotted fever group rickettsiae on the Crimean Peninsula

Bulletin of the Russian Military Medical Academy
BACKGROUND: In total, 30 ixodid tick species were found on the Crimean Peninsula. Their epidemiological importance was directly correlated with the pathogenicity of the infectious agents that they may transmit.

Evolution, purification, and characterization of RC0497: a peptidoglycan amidase from the prototypical spotted fever species Rickettsia conorii

Biological chemistry, 2019
Rickettsial species have independently lost several genes owing to reductive evolution while retaining those predominantly implicated in virulence, survival, and biosynthetic pathways.

Rickettsiosis Caused by Rickettsia conorii in Uruguay

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003
Abstract: The first three human cases of rickettsiosis caused by Rickettsia conorii in Montevideo, Uruguay were described in 1990. All of them showed an initial papulosquamous lesion on the scalp from a canine tick bite (Amblyomma triste). At the same time, fever and regional adenopathies were observed.
