چکیده
ITALIC! Rickettsia raoultiiis a tick-associated spotted fever group (SFG) organism, causing scalp eschar and neck lymphadenopathy after tick bite (SENLAT) in humans. We report here the genome sequence of ITALIC! R. raoultiistrain Khabarovsk(T)(CSUR R3(T), ATCC VR-1596(T)), which was isolated from a ITALIC! Dermacentor silvarumtick collected in Russia.

Rickettsia slovaca and R. raoultii in Tick-borne Rickettsioses
Tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA), also called Dermacentor-borne necrosis erythema and lymphadenopathy (DEBONEL), is defined as the association of a tick bite, an inoculation eschar on the scalp, and cervical adenopathies. We identified the etiologic agent for 65% of 86 patients with TIBOLA/DEBONEL as either Rickettsia slovaca (49/86, 57%) or R. raoultii (7/86, 8%).
متن کاملTick cell culture isolation and growth of Rickettsia raoultii from Dutch Dermacentor reticulatus ticks
Tick cell lines play an important role in research on ticks and tick-borne pathogenic and symbiotic microorganisms. In an attempt to derive continuous Dermacentor reticulatus cell lines, embryo-derived primary cell cultures were set up from eggs laid by field ticks originally collected as unfed adults in The Netherlands and maintained for up to 16 months. After several months, it became evident...
متن کاملComplete genome sequence of Rickettsia slovaca, the agent of tick-borne lymphadenitis.
The present study reports the complete and annotated genome sequence of the human pathogen Rickettsia slovaca strain 13-B, which was isolated from a Dermacentor tick in Slovakia in 1968. The 1.27-Mb genome provides further insights into the acquisition of virulence related to genome reduction in Rickettsia species.
متن کاملStudy on tick-borne rickettsiae in eastern Poland. I. Prevalence in Dermacentor reticulatus (Acari: Amblyommidae).
Rickettsia spp. transmitted by ticks are classified mostly in the Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiae (SFGR). Numerous species of this group have been identified in Eurasia as emerging pathogens, but still little is known about their occurrence, effects on human health, and co-incidence with other tick-borne pathogens. The aim of the presented study was to determine the prevalence of Rickettsia spp...
متن کاملRickettsia slovaca in Dermacentor marginatus ticks, Germany
To the Editor: Dermacentor spp. ticks are found in many countries in Europe, and are vectors for several pathogens, including Francisella tularensis, Coxiella burnetii, Rickettsia spp., and Babesia canis (1,2). Because Dermacentor marginatus ticks require warm dry habitats, these ticks are found in only a few areas in southern Germany, mainly in the Rhine and Main valleys (3). However, these ti...
