Experimental Infection of Mice and Ticks with the Human Isolate of Anaplasma phagocytophilum NY-18
KALINOVÁ, Eliška
Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a significant tick-borne pathogen that colonizes granulocytic cells in vertebrate hosts. It is found in North America and in several European countries. It causes severe diseases in domestic animals and potentially fatal disease in humans called human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA). The implementation of animal models is necessary due to the increasing prevalence of A. phagocytophilum. This study addresses the transmission of the human isolate of the bacterium A. phagocytophilum NY-18 by two tick species (Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes scapularis) and implements a laboratory model for the transmission of A. phagocytophilum by the tick I. ricinus in mice. The thesis also compares both transmissions and infection dynamics.
