Typhus Fever – Rickettsia prowazekii [PDF]
, 2004 Epidemic typhus results from infection by Rickettsia prowazekii, a Gram negative, obligate intracellular bacterium. At least two strains can be distinguished by genetic analysis.

Typhus Group Rickettsiosis, Germany, 2010–2017
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018 Typhus group rickettsiosis is caused by the vectorborne bacteria Rickettsia typhi and R. prowazekii. R. typhi, which causes murine typhus, the less severe endemic form of typhus, is transmitted by fleas; R.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Ehrlichia canis Infection
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Transmitted by tick vectors, Ehrlichia canis (E. canis) is a Gram‐negative, obligate intracellular bacterium of zoonotic concern that infects both canine and human hosts. Its pathogenesis centers on the targeting of mononuclear phagocytes, where it establishes an intracellular niche by suppressing phagolysosomal fusion and evading immune detection ...

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms
Drug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 8, December 2025.ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Luminal Phospholipase D Attacks Bacterial Membranes in Dictyostelium discoideum Phagosomes
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 124, Issue 1, Page 54-65, July 2025.This study shows that PldX, a luminal Phospholipase D, is necessary for the efficient destruction of ingested Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria in Dictyostelium discoideum phagosomes. PldX and the AlyL lysozyme together attack the bacterial membrane and permeabilize it. To date, the molecular substrate of PldX remains to be determined. ABSTRACT Phagocytic

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.The Neopsylla hongyangensis is an important medical insect that transmits plague. We sequenced the mitogenome of N. hongyangensis and constructed a phylogenetic tree for the order Siphonaptera. In addition, we explored the mitogenomic evolution of the orders Siphonaptera and Phthiraptera, which both belong to the class Insects, on warm‐blooded animals ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.GI helminth and lice are highly prevalent in indigenous semi‐scavenging chickens. Seven species of helminths were detected, and Raillietina was predominant. Three species of lice were identified and Menopon gallinae was most abundant. Co‐infection was observed in helminth infections and lice infestation.

Hemocytes from Pediculus humanus humanus are hosts for human bacterial pathogens.
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2015 Pediculus humanus humanus is an human ectoparasite which represents a serious public health threat because it is vector for pathogenic bacteria. It is important to understand and identify where bacteria reside in human body lice to define new strategies ...
