Evidence has been presented that the percentage of gamma delta T cells with Vgamma9Vdelta2 phenotype is dramatically increased in the peripheral blood of patients with acute brucellosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Falling
Recent work in our laboratory ( 19 ) showed that the phagosome is acidified rapidly after uptake of Brucella, falling to a very low pH of 4.0. [doi.org]
Respiratoric

Pleural Effusion
From 13 patients in which chest radiography was performed, four (30%) had radiological abnormalities, including lobar pneumonia in two cases (one with pleural effusion) and interstitial involvement in other two. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Skin

Ulcer
Here we present crystal structures of VirB8 of Brucella suis, the causative agent of brucellosis, and ComB10, a VirB10 homolog of Helicobacter pylori, the causative agent of gastric ulcers. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Nickel is essential for other important enzymatic reactions, among which ureolysis has become of major interest since a relationship between the highly ureolytic pathogen H. pylori and the human peptic ulceration has been found ( 28 ). [doi.org]

Excitement
About 50,000 individual events were excited with a 488-nm argon-ion laser, and emission light was detected through a 530-nm bandpass filter. Cell Quest software (Becton Dickinson) was used for the quantitation of fluorescence. [doi.org]

Vaginal Discharge
Many sows within this herd experienced abortions, while others exhibited vaginal discharge; three sows suffered posterior paralysis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pleural Effusion
From 13 patients in which chest radiography was performed, four (30%) had radiological abnormalities, including lobar pneumonia in two cases (one with pleural effusion) and interstitial involvement in other two. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
The patient's fever persisted along with positive blood cultures despite specific antimicrobial treatment. Due to this adverse outcome, the patient was interrogated again and admitted having domestic swine. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Before attempting treatment for other diseases, it is logical to test for brucellosis in herds in which sterility is a problem. Sterility in sows is more frequently temporary but may be permanent. [merckvetmanual.com]
Etiology
Abstract Brucella is a facultative intracellular pathogen of various mammals and the etiological agent of brucellosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The gram-negative bacteria Brucella spp. are the etiologic agents of brucellosis, a disease that is encountered worldwide and is endemic in many underdeveloped countries. [doi.org]
Epidemiology
Epidemiological and clinical aspects of Brucella suis infection in 17 workers from a pork processing plant in Argentina occurring between January 2014 and July 2015 are presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Relevant epidemiological issues based on changes in the highly conserved genome of these bacteria will be valuable tools to describe outbreaks and disease status, along with risk factors that would otherwise be difficult to analyze. [digital.cic.gba.gob.ar]
Prevention
Induction or prevention of host cell apoptosis appears to be a critical step for determining the infection outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
