An Unusual Case of Feline Leishmaniosis With Involvement of the Mammary Glands

  • Autores: Pereira A, Valente J, Parreira R, Cristóvão JM, Azinheira S, Campino L, Maia C
  • Ano de Publicação: 2019
  • Journal: Topics in Companion Animal Medicine

We report an unusual case of leishmaniosis with the involvement of mammary glands in an old cat with what seems to be a concurrent regressive feline leukemia virus infection. Leishmania donovani complex parasites were identified for the first time in inflammatory breast fluid during a clinical recurrence manifested about 4 years after the first diagnosis of feline […]

A diverse assemblage of RNA and DNA viruses found in mosquitoes collected in southern Portugal

  • Autores: Silva M, Morais P, Maia C, de Sousa CB, de Almeida APG, Parreira R
  • Ano de Publicação: 2019
  • Journal: Virus Research
  • Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31560965

This work describes the detection and partial characterization of mosquito-borne virus genomic sequences, based on the analysis of mosquitoes collected from the Spring to Fall of 2018 in the Algarve (southern Portugal). The viral survey that was carried out using multiple primer sets disclosed the presence of both RNA and DNA viral sequences in these […]

Geographic dispersal and genetic diversity of tick-borne phleboviruses (Phenuiviridae, Phlebovirus) as revealed by the analysis of L segment sequences

  • Autores: Pimentel V, Afonso R, Nunes M, Vieira ML, Bravo-Barriga D, Frontera E, Martinez M, Pereira A, Maia C, Paiva-Cardoso MDN, Freitas FB, Abecasis AB, Parreira R
  • Ano de Publicação: 2019
  • Journal: Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
  • Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31078467

The large diversity of new tick-borne phleboviruses, and the negative impacts of the virulent viruses on human/animal health have led to a growing interest in their analysis. In this report, new insights are brought out into the diversity of putative phleboviruses circulating in Portugal (both the continental territory and the islands of São Miguel, in […]

Detection of Rickettsia conorii israelensis DNA in the Blood of a Cat and a Dog From Southern Portugal

  • Autores: Maia C, Cristóvão JM, Pereira A, Parreira R, Campino L
  • Ano de Publicação: 2019
  • Journal: Topics in Companion Animal Medicine
  • Link: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1938973619300248

Vector-borne rickettsioses represent emerging threats to public health worldwide. The aim of this work was the screening for the presence of Rickettsia spp. in the blood of dogs and cats from southern Portugal. A PCR product of the expected size was amplified from DNA extracts obtained from blood samples of 29 out of 225 (12.9%) cats and […]
