Effect of cyclophosphamide on the growth of Rickettsia sennetsu in experimentally infected mice.
The growth rate of Rickettsia sennetsu, the etiological agent of sennetsu rickettsiosis, a special type of infectious mononucleosis found in western Japan, is very low when the ordinary experimental methods used for other members of the rickettsiae are employed. Attempts have been made to increase its growth the rickettsiae are employed. Attempts have been made to increase its growth rate in ce...
متن کاملPurification of complement-fixing antigens of Rickettsia sennetsu by ether treatment.
Soluble and particulate complement-fixing antigens of Rickettsia sennetsu were prepared from spleen suspensions of mice infected with the rickettsia and treated with cyclophosphamide. The medium used during purification of antigens, a solution consisting of equal volumes of phosphate-glutamate-sucrose buffer and veronal-buffered saline, was suitable for obtaining antigens with high titers and n...
متن کاملAdaptation of Ehrlichia sennetsu to canine blood monocytes: preliminary structural and serological studies with cell culture-derived Ehrlichia sennetsu.
Ehrlichia sennetsu, the causative agent of human sennetsu rickettsiosis, was successfully propagated in primary canine blood monocyte cultures. The growth cycle of this organism appears to be similar to that of Ehrlichia canis. The antigen derived from our E. sennetsu cultures was used to develop an indirect fluorescent antibody test for detection and titration of serum antibodies to the organi...
متن کاملRickettsia parkeri Rickettsiosis, Argentina
Rickettsia parkeri, a recently identified cause of spotted fever rickettsiosis in the United States, has been found in Amblyomma triste ticks in several countries of South America, including Argentina, where it is believed to cause disease in humans. We describe the clinical and epidemiologic characteristics of 2 patients in Argentina with confirmed R. parkeri infection and 7 additional patient...
متن کاملRickettsia parkeri Rickettsiosis, Arizona, USA
In the United States, all previously reported cases of Rickettsia parkeri rickettsiosis have been linked to transmission by the Gulf Coast tick (Amblyomma maculatum). Here we describe 1 confirmed and 1 probable case of R. parkeri rickettsiosis acquired in a mountainous region of southern Arizona, well beyond the recognized geographic range of A. maculatum ticks. The likely vector for these 2 in...
