Rickettsia spp. and Anaplasmataceae in Ticks From Domestic Animals in Northern Colombia

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick‐borne diseases have a significant impact on public and animal health and represent a considerable financial burden on livestock farming. However, in many regions of Latin America, comprehensive epidemiological data, including species identification, geographical distribution and molecular profiling of ticks and their ...

Evasion of autophagy mediated by Rickettsia surface protein OmpB is critical for virulence. [PDF]

, 2019
Rickettsia are obligate intracellular bacteria that evade antimicrobial autophagy in the host cell cytosol by unknown mechanisms. Other cytosolic pathogens block different steps of autophagy targeting, including the initial step of polyubiquitin-coat ...

The Immunology of Alpha‐Gal Syndrome: History, Tick Bites, IgE, and Delayed Anaphylaxis to Mammalian Meat

Immunological Reviews, Volume 332, Issue 1, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The primary features of the alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS) are (i) The IgE ab that are causally related to anaphylaxis with infusions of Cetuximab are specific for galactose alpha‐1,3‐galactose. (ii) In the USA, this IgE ab is induced by bites of the tick Amblyomma americanum. (iii) The anaphylactic reactions to food derived from non‐primate mammals

Reactivity of monoclonal antibodies to Rickettsia rickettsii with spotted fever and typhus group rickettsiae [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1987
Analysis of 15 spotted fever group (SFG) and 2 typhus group strains of rickettsiae with a panel of monoclonal antibodies revealed a number of shared and unique epitopes of the 120- and 155-kilodalton surface proteins. All of the SFG strains but neither of the typhus group strains reacted with antibody to the lipopolysaccharidelike antigen of Rickettsia

Sufficient reproduction numbers to prevent recurrent epidemics

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1186-1200, June 2025.
Abstract Current practice in the design and evaluation of control measures in disease ecology and epidemiology, including vaccination, is largely based on reproduction numbers (RNs), which represent prognostic indices of long‐term disease transmission, both in naïve populations (basic RN) and in the presence of prior exposure or infection containment ...
