A Sinorhizobium meliloti and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ExoR ortholog is not crucial for Brucella abortus virulence
(PLOS ONE, 2021-08-13)
Brucella is a facultative extracellular-intracellular pathogen that belongs to the Alphaproteo-
bacteria class. Precise sensing of environmental changes and a proper response mediated
by a gene expression regulatory ...
Brucella genomics: macro and micro evolution
(MDPI AG, 2020-10-20)
Brucella organisms are responsible for one of the most widespread bacterial zoonoses,
named brucellosis. The disease affects several species of animals, including humans. One of the
most intriguing aspects of the brucellae ...
Canine brucellosis in Costa Rica reveals widespread Brucella canis infection and the recent introduction of foreign strains
(Elsevier, 2021-04-16)
Brucellosis is a prevalent disease in Costa Rica (CR), with an increasing number of human infections. Close to half of homes in CR have one or more dogs, corresponding to ∼1.4 million canines, most of them in the Central ...
Estudios anátomo-histopatológicos e inmunohistoquímicos sobre las patologías de los cetáceos encallados en Costa Rica durante el período 2001-2007. Con énfasis especial en el diagnóstico de Brucella y Morbillivirus
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2008)
Costa Rica cuenta con una extensión marítima diez veces mayor a su extensión terrestre. En
estas aguas habita el treinta y cinco por ciento de la biodiversidad mundial de cetáceos,
representada por aproximadamente 29 ...
Applying One Health to understand brucellosis biology
(Microbiology Society UKCongreso de la Sociedad de Microbiología del Reino Unido, 2019-04-08)
Members of the Brucella genus, are facultative extracellular intracellular zoonotic bacteria that cause reproductive disease in animals. The different species show strong host preference in spite of sharing 96-98% similarity ...
Brucella abortus S19 GFP-tagged vaccine allows the serological identification of vaccinated cattle
(PLOS ONE, 2021-11-22)
Bovine brucellosis induces abortion in cows, produces important economic losses, and
causes a widely distributed zoonosis. Its eradication was achieved in several countries after
sustained vaccination with the live ...
The one hundred year journey of the genus Brucella (Mayer and Shaw 1920)
(Oxford University Press, 2021-01-01)
The genus Brucella, described by Meyer and Shaw in 1920, comprises bacterial pathogens of veterinary and public health relevance. For 36 years, the genus came to include three species that caused brucellosis in livestock ...
Platelet depletion does not alter the course of Brucella abortus infection in vivo
(Elsevier, 2022-02-23)
Brucellosis is a bacterial disease of animals and a zoonotic infection. Thrombocytopenia is a common outcome in
long-lasting brucellosis in humans. Likewise, ex vivo experiments have shown that platelets may play a role ...
Determination of streptomycin and doxycycline using LC/MS towards an effective treatment against an experimental Brucella abortus infection in mice
(Elsevier B.V, 2022-02-25)
Herein we described a versatile liquid chromatographic method for detection and quantification of the total
levels of two antimicrobials [i.e., streptomycin (STM) and doxycycline (DOX)], in mice plasma and selected
tissues, ...
A two-component regulatory system playing a critical role in plant pathogens and endosymbionts is present in Brucella abortus and controls cell invasion and virulence
(Blackwell Science, 1998-04-08)
Two mutants showing increased sensitivity to polycations and surfactants were obtained by transposon mutagenesis of virulent Brucella abortus 2308 Nal(r). These mutants showed no obvious in vitro growth defects and produced ...
