Survival of Rickettsia conorii in artificially contaminated whole and leukoreduced canine blood units during the storage period [PDF]
Parasit Vectors, 2020 The ability of tick-borne agents to survive in stored blood bags is a key factor for their transmissibility by blood transfusion. The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival and potential infectivity of Rickettsia conorii (RC) in artificially ...

Rickettsia conorii O antigen is the target of bactericidal Weil–Felix antibodies [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2019 Significance Genetic analysis of Rickettsia has been difficult. We developed a transposon and selection scheme to facilitate the isolation of Rickettsia conorii mutants with insertional lesions. Here, we demonstrate that the R.

A Rickettsia Case Caused by Rickettsia conorii
Mikrobiyoloji Bulteni, 2018 Rickettsia species are gram-negative intracellular, small pleomorphic coccobacilli in the Rickettsiaceae family. This genus is serologically and genotypically divided into four groups as spotted fever group, typhus group, Rickettsia belli and Rickettsia canadensis. Rickettsia conorii (R.conorii subsp. conorii) in the spotted fever group was reported to

Global Transcriptomic Profiling of Pulmonary Gene Expression in an Experimental Murine Model of Rickettsia conorii Infection [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2019 Mediterranean spotted fever develops from an infection with Rickettsia conorii, an obligate intracellular, Gram-negative, endotheliotropic, and tick-transmitted bacterial pathogen, and is an acute, febrile illness that can progress to life-threatening ...

Rickettsia conorii Transcriptional Response within Inoculation Eschar
PLoS ONE, 2008 Rickettsia conorii, the causative agent of the Mediterranean spotted fever, is transmitted to humans by the bite of infected ticks Rhipicephalus sanguineus. The skin thus constitutes an important barrier for the entry and propagation of R. conorii. Given this, analysis of the survival strategies used by the bacterium within infected skin is critical ...
