Characterization of the subclinical phase of canine ehrlichiosis in experimentally infected beagle dogsT Waner
Israel Institute for Biological Research, Ness Ziona, Israel
Vet Parasitol 69:307-17. 1997..Hypergammaglobulinemia would increase the suspicion further. Based on the results presented, routine testing of dogs in E. canis endemic areas is recommended in order to identify and treat dogs in the subclinical phase of the disease...
Kinetics of serologic cross-reactions between Ehrlichia canis and the Ehrlichia phagocytophila genogroups in experimental E. canis infection in dogsT Waner
Israel Institute for Biological Research, Ness Ziona
Vet Immunol Immunopathol 66:237-43. 1998..phagocytophila by 150 days PI. It is suggested that the appearance of E. phagocytophila antibodies following treatment of acute E. canis infection may be used to judge treatment failure and/or persistence of infection...
Antibodies reactive with Ehrlichia canis, Ehrlichia phagocytophila genogroup antigens and the spotted fever group rickettsial antigens, in free-ranging jackals (Canis aureus syriacus) from IsraelT Waner
Israel Institute for Biological Research, Ness Ziona
Vet Parasitol 82:121-8. 1999..The possibility that jackals may play a role in the transmission of E. canis, E. phagocytophila and the SFG-rickettsiae for human and canine infections is discussed...
Detection of platelet-bound antibodies in beagle dogs after artificial infection with Ehrlichia canisT Waner
Israel Institute for Biological Research, PO Box 19, Ness Ziona, Israel
Vet Immunol Immunopathol 77:145-50. 2000..Due to the heterogeneous appearance of PBIgG among the infected dogs it was concluded that other non-immunological mechanisms are probably also involved in the pathogenesis of the thrombocytopenia seen in canine monocytic ehrlichiosis...
Significance of serological testing for ehrlichial diseases in dogs with special emphasis on the diagnosis of canine monocytic ehrlichiosis caused by Ehrlichia canisT Waner
Israel Institute for Biological Research, P O Box 19, Ness Ziona 70400, Israel
Vet Parasitol 95:1-15. 2001..canis serological results...
Application of a dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for evaluation of the immune status to canine parvovirus and distemper virus in adult dogs before revaccinationTrevor Waner
Israel Institute for Biological Research, P O Box 19, Ness Ziona, 70400, Israel
J Vet Diagn Invest 18:267-70. 2006..It is concluded that the kit offers veterinarians the opportunity of determining antibody titers and revaccinating only those pets whose antibody titers to specific diseases have waned...
Rickettsia conorii in humans and dogs: a seroepidemiologic survey of two rural villages in IsraelShimon Harrus
School of Veterinary Medicine, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Rehovot, Israel
Am J Trop Med Hyg 77:133-5. 2007..These results support a previous suggestion that canine serology could be a sensitive indicator for the presence and magnitude of human exposure to R. conorii...
Comparison of three enzyme-linked immunosorbant assays with the indirect immunofluorescent antibody test for the diagnosis of canine infection with Ehrlichia canisShimon Harrus
The Koret School of Veterinary Medicine, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, P O Box 12, 76100, Rehovot, Israel
Vet Microbiol 86:361-8. 2002..Repeating the serological tests 1-2 weeks after the first antibody assay may overcome the sensitivity problem with titers of < or =1:320...
Comparison of simultaneous splenic sample PCR with blood sample PCR for diagnosis and treatment of experimental Ehrlichia canis infectionShimon Harrus
School of Veterinary Medicine, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, P O Box 12, Rehovot 76100, Israel
Antimicrob Agents Chemother 48:4488-90. 2004..Blood PCR was as valuable as splenic aspirate PCR for early diagnosis of acute CME. Splenic aspirate PCR was, however, superior to blood PCR for the evaluation of ehrlichial elimination...
Down-regulation of MHC class II receptors of DH82 cells, following infection with Ehrlichia canisShimon Harrus
School of Veterinary Medicine, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, P O Box 12, Rehovot 76100, Israel
Vet Immunol Immunopathol 96:239-43. 2003..canis. The present results indicate that infection of DH82 macrophages with E. canis down-regulates their MHC class II receptors. These results suggest a possible mechanism by which E. canis evades the immune system...
Genetic and antigenic diversities of major immunoreactive proteins in globally distributed Ehrlichia canis strainsXiaofeng Zhang
Department of Pathology, Center for Biodefense and Emerging Infectious Diseases, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX 77555 0609, USA
Clin Vaccine Immunol 15:1080-8. 2008..Conversely, gp19 was strongly reactive and present in all E. canis isolates. gp140 and gp200 were also present in all strains, although gp140 in the IS strain had two fewer tandem repeats and exhibited a smaller mass...
