Exploring spotted-fever and typhus group rickettsiae seroprevalence and associated risk factors among rural inhabitants from Cauca department, Colombia

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Rickettsia species are vector-borne bacteria, some of which cause rickettsioses, an underrecognized cause of acute undifferentiated febrile illness. While several regions of Colombia are considered endemic for rickettsial infections, information from ...

Stomach as the target organ of Rickettsia heilongjiangensis infection in C57BL/6 mice identified by click chemistry

Communications Biology
Spotted fever group rickettsiae (SFGR) are obligate intracellular bacteria that cause spotted fever. The limitations of gene manipulation pose great challenges to studying the infection mechanisms of Rickettsia.
