Constitutive and inducible green fluorescent protein expression in Bartonella henselae.

The green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene was expressed on a plasmid in B. henselae, and GFP-expressing bacteria were visualized by fluorescence microscopy. HEp-2 cells infected with GFP-expressing bacteria were separated from uninfected cells with a fluorescence activated cell sorter. Promoter fusions of B. henselae chromosomal DNA to gfp were examined by flow cytometry, and a B. henselae groEL promoter fusion which induced expression at 37 degreesC was isolated.

Bartonella quintana coinfection with Mycobacterium avium complex and CMV in an AIDS patient: case presentation.

BACKGROUND: As a greater number of HIV-infected patients survive despite profound immunodepression due to medical progress, we face complex infection with multiple agents in AIDS-patients. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of an AIDS patient with a primary clinical presentation suggestive of bacillary angiomatosis. We also found in cutaneous lesions Mycobacterium avium complex and cytomegalovirus. CONCLUSION: This clinical case illustrates the possibility of multiple coinfections in AIDS patients and the need to be exhaustive in evaluating infectious diseases in severely immunocompromised patients.

[Cat-scratch disease caused by Bartonella quintana in an infant: an unusual presentation].

This case study reports a typical clinical course of cat-scratch disease (CSD) in an infant without epidemiological data and presenting bilateral submandibular lymphadenopathy. The authors describe clinical course, ultrasound images, diagnosis and prognosis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detected and identified B. quintana in lymph node samples. B. henselae currently thought to be the causative agent of CSD was not detected. The PCR assays for B. quintana and B. henselae should be available for the investigation of lymphadenopathy, even if the infant has not had either cat or dog contact.
