rats of the genus rattus are reservoir hosts for pathogenic bartonella species: an old world origin for a new world disease?	bartonella species were isolated from the blood of 63 of 325 rattus norvegicus and 11 of 92 rattus rattus from 13 sites in the united states and portugal. infection in both rattus species ranged from 0% (e.g., 0/87) to approximately 60% (e.g., 35/62). a 337-bp fragment of the citrate synthase (glta) gene amplified by polymerase chain reaction was sequenced from all 74 isolates. isolates from r. norvegicus were most similar to bartonella elizabethae, isolated previously from a patient with endoca ...	1999	10353885
in vitro susceptibilities of rickettsia and bartonella spp. to 14-hydroxy-clarithromycin as determined by immunofluorescent antibody analysis of infected vero cell monolayers.	the in vitro susceptibilities of rickettsia akari, rickettsia conorii, rickettsia prowazekii, rickettsia rickettsii, bartonella elizabethae, bartonella henselae and bartonella quintana to different concentrations of clarithromycin, 14-hydroxy-clarithromycin (the primary metabolite of clarithromycin) and tetracycline in vero cell cultures, were determined by enumeration of immunofluorescently-stained bacilli. the extent of antibiotic-induced inhibition of foci was recorded for each dilution of an ...	2000	10702548
a bacteriophage-like particle from bartonella bacilliformis.	bartonella bacilliformis and bartonella henselae, the respective agents of oroya fever and cat-scratch disease in humans, are known to produce bacteriophage-like particles (blps) that package 14 kbp segments of the host chromosome. data from this study suggest that other bartonella species including bartonella quintana, bartonella doshiae and bartonella grahamii also contain similar blps, as evidenced by the presence of a 14 kbp extrachromosomal dna element in their genomes, whereas bartonella e ...	2000	10746763
molecular phylogeny of the genus bartonella: what is the current knowledge?	species of the genus bartonella are involved in an increasing variety of human diseases. in addition to the 14 currently recognized species, several bartonella strains have been recovered from a wide range of wild and domestic mammals in europe and america. such a high diversity of geographic distributions, animal reservoirs, arthropod vectors and pathogenic properties makes clarification of our knowledge about the phylogeny of bartonella species necessary. phylogenetic data have been inferred m ...	2001	11410341
