Científicos estudian proceso de contagio de la Brucella
(Oficina de Comunicación, Universidad Nacional, 2020-11)
Elías Barquero académico de la Escuela de Medicina Veterinaria (EMV) y Edgardo Moreno, profesor emérito de la Universidad Nacional (UNA), publicaron recientemente una investigación sobre el papel de ...
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 ...
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, ...
The regulon of Brucella abortus two- component system BvrR/BvrS reveals the coordination of metabolic pathways required for intracellular life
(PLOS ONE, 2022-09-21)
Brucella abortus is a facultative intracellular pathogen causing a severe zoonotic disease
worldwide. The two-component regulatory system (TCS) BvrR/BvrS of B. abortus is con-
served in members of the Alphaproteobacteria ...
Persistence of Brucella abortus lineages revealed by genomic characterization and phylodynamic analysis
(PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020-04-14)
Brucellosis, caused by Brucella abortus, is a major disease of cattle and humans worldwide distributed. Eradication and control of the disease has been difficult in Central and South America, Central Asia, the Mediterranean ...
Hallazgos anatomopatológicos en virtopsia, necropsia, bacteriología e histopatología del sistema nervioso central de cetáceos encallados en las playas de Costa Rica durante el periodo 2017-2021
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2021-10-08)
La fauna de cetáceos en Costa Rica incluye una estimación de 30 especies,
esta biodiversidad representa el 33% de las especies de cetáceos del mundo y, por lo
tanto, anualmente se reportan encallamientos de cetáceos a ...
Pathogenicity and its implications in Taxonomy: The Brucella and Ochrobactrum Case
(MDPI, 2022)
The intracellular pathogens of the genus Brucella are phylogenetically close to Ochrobac-
trum, a diverse group of free-living bacteria with a few species occasionally infecting medically
compromised patients. A group ...
A bvrR/bvrS Non-Polar Brucella abortus Mutant Confirms the Role of the Two-Component System BvrR/BvrS in Virulence and Membrane Integrity
(MDPI, 2023-08-05)
Brucella abortus is a bacterial pathogen causing bovine brucellosis worldwide. This facultative extracellular–intracellular pathogen can be transmitted to humans, leading to a zoonotic disease.
The disease remains a public ...
Virulent Brucella nosferati infecting Desmodus rotundus has emerging potential due to the broad foraging range of its bat host for humans and wild and domestic animals
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-07-05)
Desmodus rotundus, vampire bats, transmit dangerous infections, and
brucellosis is a hazardous zoonotic disease, two adversities that coexist in the subtropical
and tropical areas of the American continent. Here, we ...
