Human Spotted Fever Rickettsial Infections

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
Serum specimens from patients at 4 sites in Peru were tested for evidence of spotted fever group rickettsial infection. Results showed that 30 (18%) of 170 patients had spotted fever group rickettsial infections, which likely caused their illnesses ...

SPOTTED FEVER GROUP RICKETTSIOSIS IN JAPAN

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Medical Science and Biology, 1985
The acute febrile disease with characteristic rash encountered in Tokushima Prefecture was proved to be a spotted fever group rickettsiosis, which showed a significant rise in agglutinins to both Proteus OX2 and OX19 and significantly high levels of CF antibodies to Rickettsia akari and Rickettsia rickettsii.

Proteins of typhus and spotted fever group rickettsiae [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1976
Purified radioactive rickettsiae were obtained from irradiated and cycloheximide-inhibited L cells, and their proteins were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Rickettsial species could be distinguished by comparing the relative mobilities of constituent proteins after migration of two differentially labeled preparations in a single gel ...

Regulator of Actin-Based Motility (RoaM) Downregulates Actin Tail Formation by Rickettsia rickettsii and Is Negatively Selected in Mammalian Cell Culture

open access: yesmBio, 2022
The etiological agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Rickettsia rickettsii, is an obligately intracellular pathogen that induces the polymerization of actin filaments to propel the bacterium through the cytoplasm and spread to new host cells.

Properties of selected rickettsiae of the spotted fever group [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1980
Eight strains of spotted fever group rickettsiae were studied to gain insight into the extent of variation of their properties. Two standard strains of Rickettsia rickettsii and one strain of Rickettsia conorii were included among the eight for comparison.
