Bartonella
Sign in to saveBartonella is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria. It is the only genus in the family Bartonellaceae. Bartonella species cause Bartonellosis, which is a group of zoonotic infectious diseases that affects both humans and animals. Common forms include cat-scratch disease (Bartonella henselae) and trench fever (Bartonella quintana). As Facultative intracellular parasites, Bartonella species can infect healthy people, but are considered especially important as opportunistic pathogens. Bartonella species are transmitted by vectors such as fleas, sand flies, and mosquitoes.

バルトネラ属はグラム陰性の運動性がある非芽胞形成絶対好気性通性細胞寄生桿菌。かつてはリケッチア科に分類されていたが再分類されてバルトネラ科に属し、その基準属である。また、ロカリメア属(ロシャリメア属、ロカリマエア属)、グラハメラ属に分類されていた微生物は本属に統合された。基準種はバルトネラ・バシリホルミス。ペルーの微生物学者、アルベルト・バルトンに因む。 動物の細胞内外でみられ、病原性がある。基準種のバルトネラ・バシリホルミスはバルトネラ症(カリオン氏病)、バルトネラ・ヘンセラは猫ひっかき病、バルトネラ・クインタナは塹壕熱の原因菌として知られる。 「https://ja.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=バルトネラ属&oldid=59837108」から取得 カテゴリ: プロテオバクテリア門

Bartonella is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria. It is the only genus in the family Bartonellaceae. Bartonella species cause Bartonellosis, which is a group of zoonotic infectious diseases that affects both humans and animals. Common forms include cat-scratch disease (Bartonella henselae) and trench fever (Bartonella quintana). As Facultative intracellular parasites, Bartonella species can infect healthy people, but are considered especially important as opportunistic pathogens. Bartonella species are transmitted by vectors such as fleas, sand flies, and mosquitoes.
Currently, 12 Bartonella species are known to infect humans. As research continues, more species transmissible to humans from vectors can be discovered. 37 different species and 3 subspecies of Bartonella exist. While 12 species can infect humans, 3 Bartonella pathogens are largely associated with human transmission and infection: B. henselae, B. quintana, and Bartonella bacilliformis.
