Rickettsia conorii Subspecies israelensis in Captive Baboons. [PDF]
Emerg Infect Dis, 2023 Hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas) may transmit zoonotic vector-borne pathogens to visitors and workers frequenting zoological parks. We molecularly screened 33 baboons for vector-borne pathogens.

Tick-Borne Rickettsioses in the Iberian Peninsula
Pathogens, 2022 Tick-borne rickettsioses (TBR) are caused by obligate, intracellular bacteria of the spotted-fever group (SFG) of the genus Rickettsia (Order Rickettsiales), transmitted by hard ticks.

Small Regulatory RNAs of Rickettsia conorii. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractSmall regulatory RNAs comprise critically important modulators of gene expression in bacteria, yet very little is known about their prevalence and functions in Rickettsia species. R. conorii, the causative agent of Mediterranean spotted fever, is a tick-borne pathogen that primarily infects microvascular endothelium in humans.

Experimental infection of Rhipicephalus sanguineus with Rickettsia conorii conorii [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009 Little is known about the relationships between Rickettsia conorii conorii, the agent of Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF), and its main vector, the brown dog tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus [1]. Matsumoto et al. recently reported a high mortality of Rh. sanguineus group ticks infected with R.

Rickettsia conorii entry into Vero cells [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1995 The entry of rickettsiae into eukaryotic cells is mediated by an induced phagocytosis, but rickettsiae have never been observed in a closed phagocytic vacuole. In this study, Rickettsia conorii entry into Vero cells was observed by transmission electron microscopy during a period of 3 to 20 min after bacterium-cell contact.

Transmission of Rickettsia conorii conorii in naturally infected Rhipicephalus sanguineus [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009 Rickettsia conorii conorii is the causative agent of Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF) a life-threatening zoonosis that is endemic in Mediterranean countries [1]. In the early 1930s, Olmer supposed that the vector of disease was the brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus.

In vitro susceptibilities of Rickettsia rickettsii and Rickettsia conorii to roxithromycin and pristinamycin [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1989 In vitro susceptibilities of Rickettsia rickettsii and Rickettsia conorii to roxithromycin, pristinamycin, and the pristinamycin compounds, P1 and P2, were determined by a dye uptake assay and a plaque assay. The MICs were 1 microgram/ml for roxithromycin, 2 micrograms/ml for pristinamycin, greater than 256 micrograms/ml for P1, and 2 micrograms/ml for
