Abstract
Anaplasma
species of the family Anaplasmataceae, order Rickettsiales are
tick-borne organisms that can cause disease in animals and
humans. In Japan, all recognized species of Anaplasma
(except for Anaplasma ovis) and a potentially novel
Anaplasma sp. closely related to Anaplasma
phagocytophilum have been reported. Most of these detected
tick-borne pathogens are believed to be lowly pathogenic in
animals in Japan although the zoonotic A. phagocytophilum
has recently been reported to cause clinical signs in a dog and
in humans. This review documents the studies and reports about
Anaplasma spp. in Japan.
Keywords:
Anaplasma
spp., Japan, tick-borne pathogen.
