Acute febrile illnesses are still a major cause of mortality and morbidity globally, particularly in low to middle income countries. The aim of this study was to determine any possible metabolic commonalities of patients infected with disparate pathogens that cause fever. Three liquid chromatogra...

The inability to propagate obligate intracellular pathogens under axenic (host cell-free) culture conditions imposes severe experimental constraints that have negatively impacted progress in understanding pathogen virulence and disease mechanisms. Coxiella burnetii, the causative agent of human Q (Q...
ORGANISM(S): Coxiella burnetii 
Coxiella burnetii, the agent of Q fever, persists in humans despite specific immune responses: however, its reservoir remains unknown. We detected C. burnetii in adipose tissue from BALB/c and C57/BL6 mice 4 months after infection when no bacteria were found in other tissues. C. burnetii infected cu...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 

African swine fever virus (ASFV) is an infectious disease with a mortality rate of nearly 100% in pigs; however, no safe commercial vaccines or antiviral drugs are currently available, which seriously threatens the global pig industry. Therefore, effective biologicals against ASFV are urgently ne...

The transcriptional response of BeWo cells stimulated with C. burnetii was analyzed using microarrays covering the whole human genome.
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
Background: Q fever is caused by the Coxiella burnetii, an intracellular bacterium that infects mononuclear cells. In some individuals, it causes a persistent cardiovascular infection (chronic Q fever). The aim of present study was to investigate the C. burnetii-induced IFN-γ response in chronic Q ...
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
Background: Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi A are the agents of enteric (typhoid) fever; both can establish chronic carriage in the gallbladder. Chronic Salmonella carriers are typically asymptomatic, intermittently shedding bacteria in the feces, and contributing to disease transmission. ...
