Journal ArticleDOI
Persistence of Brucella abortus in the Bone Marrow of Infected Mice
Cristina Gutiérrez-Jiménez,Lisiena Hysenaj,Alejandro Alfaro-Alarcón,Ricardo Mora-Cartín,Vilma Arce-Gorvel,Edgardo Moreno,Jean-Pierre Gorvel,Elías Barquero-Calvo +7 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the BM is an essential niche for the bacterium to establish long-lasting infections and that infected PMNs may serve as vehicles for dispersion of Brucella organisms, following the Trojan horse hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Persistence of Brucella abortus lineages revealed by genomic characterization and phylodynamic analysis.
Marcela Suárez-Esquivel,Gabriela Hernández-Mora,Nazareth Ruiz-Villalobos,Elías Barquero-Calvo,Carlos Chacón-Díaz,Jason T. Ladner,Gerardo Oviedo-Sánchez,Jeffrey T. Foster,Norman Rojas-Campos,Esteban Chaves-Olarte,Nicholas R. Thomson,Edgardo Moreno,Caterina Guzmán-Verri +12 more
TL;DR: The main CR lineages, introduced more than 100 years ago, are widely spread throughout the country, in contrast to new introductions that seemed to be more geographically restricted.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-Formyl-Perosamine Surface Homopolysaccharides Hinder the Recognition of Brucella abortus by Mouse Neutrophils.
Ricardo Mora-Cartín,Carlos Chacón-Díaz,Cristina Gutiérrez-Jiménez,Stephany Gurdián-Murillo,Bruno Lomonte,Esteban Chaves-Olarte,Elías Barquero-Calvo,Edgardo Moreno +7 more
TL;DR: The mouse is a valuable model for understanding the immunobiology of brucellosis, but direct extrapolation from one animal system to another has to be undertaken with caution and the molecules responsible for the Brucella camouflage are N-formyl-perosamine surface homopolysaccharides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathogenicity and Its Implications in Taxonomy: The Brucella and Ochrobactrum Case
TL;DR: It is shown that when they are adequately understood, Brucella and Ochrobactrum divergences are highly relevant in taxonomy and not unidimensional quantitative characters, and urged researchers, culture collections, and databases to keep their canonical nomenclature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the antibody response in adult cattle against different epitopes of Brucella abortus lipopolysaccharide.
TL;DR: The vaccinated and field-infected bovines are capable of producing similar antibody responses to the Brucella main outer surface antigen, LPS, which may contribute to the immunity to brucellosis.
