Meanings of microti in English

Transmission of B. microti to mice by infected H. longicornis nymphs was confirmed.

Our data demonstrate that M. microti can cause severe pulmonary TB in immunocompetent patients.

A rare case of Mycobacterium microti infection in a human immunodeficiency virus-positive patient is described.

The isolates were identified as M. microti of the llama and vole types, according to spoligotype patterns.

Babesiosis caused by Babesia microti parasite is an emerging tick borne zoonotic disease that was confirmed recently in China.

Although culture of M. microti is difficult, drug susceptibility testing could be performed, which correlated with the clinical outcome.

Other routes of B. microti transmission are blood transfusion and in rare cases of mother-to-foetus transmission, through the placenta.

The divergence and distribution of genotypes are important factors in investigating the epidemiology of human B. microti infection in Japan.

These results indicate that macrophages play a crucial role in the control of and resistance to B. microti infection in mice.

A discrete-time Markov cohort model to simulate the outcomes of B. microti infection and survival of the transfused population was developed.

Taken together, this study characterized BmTPx-2 from B. microti as an antioxidant molecule that was specifically transcribed at the erythrocyte stage.

Babesia microti is an emerging human pathogen and the primary causative agent of human babesiosis in many regions of the world.

Because of unusual morphological and cultural features, the pathogen was analyzed by spoligotyping and identified as the Mycobacterium microti llama type.

Mice were treated with clodronate liposome at different times during the course of B. microti infection in order to deplete the macrophages.

The absence of reports of B. microti babesiosis from sites where the agent is enzootic, such as in western Europe, remains unexplained.

The incidence and geographic distribution of human babesiosis is growing in the U.S. Its major causative agent is the protozoan parasite, Babesia microti.
