Exotic Small Mammals as Potential Reservoirs of Zoonotic Bartonella spp.
To evaluate the risk for emerging human infections caused by zoonotic Bartonella spp. from exotic small mammals, we investigated the prevalence of Bartonella spp. in 546 small mammals (28 species) that had been imported into Japan as pets from Asia, North America, Europe, and the Middle and Near East. We obtained 407 Bartonella isolates and characterized them by molecular phylogenetic analysis ...
متن کاملA cultured strain of "Helicobacter heilmannii," a human gastric pathogen, identified as H. bizzozeronii: evidence for zoonotic potential of Helicobacter.
We compared the characteristics of a cultured human "Helicobacter heilmannii" isolate with those of other helicobacters found in animals. Phenotypic, protein profile, 16S rDNA sequence, and DNA-DNA hybridization analyses identified the human strain as H. bizzozeronii, a species frequently found in dogs. Thus, H. bizzozeronii may have zoonotic potential.
متن کاملPrevalence Of, Risk Factors For, and Zoonotic Potential of Giardia Spp
Giardia duodenalis is an intestinal protozoal parasite capable of causing both clinical and subclinical disease in a broad range of species, including humans and cats. The parasite has a ubiquitous distribution and infection occurs worldwide in nearly all mammals. Giardia infection in cats may not be associated with any clinical signs, but affected cats most commonly exhibit acute small bowel d...
متن کاملThe zoonotic potential of Mycobacterium avium spp. paratuberculosis: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND The zoonotic potential of Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP) has been debated for almost a century because of similarities between Johne's Disease (JD) in cattle and Crohn's disease (CD) in humans. Our objective was to evaluate scientific literature investigating the potential association between these two diseases (MAP and CD) and the presence of MAP in retail milk or d...
متن کاملHelicobacter – An Emerging New Zoonotic Pathogen
The genus Helicobacter contains 35 named species and numerous provisionally named species. It is likely that several novel Helicobacter species await discovery. Members of this genus are microaerobic, have a fusiform or curved to spiral rod morphology and are motile by flagella that vary in number and location among different species (Vandamme et al., 1990). All known Helicobacters live in huma...
