A case report of an Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi) infected with Leptospira interrogans.
Leptospirosis, a global zoonosis caused by Leptospira spirochetes, has been isolated from various wild mammals. This study evaluated clinical and pathological changes in an adult male Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi) infected with Leptospira interrogans. In the present study, interstitial nephritis and Leptospira antigen were observed in the kidney of an Amami rabbit. There were no lesions associated with Leptospira infection in other organs examined. Further study is needed to determine the pathogenic effect of Leptospira infection in this animal species.
期刊介绍:
JVMS is a peer-reviewed journal and publishes a variety of papers on veterinary science from basic research to applied science and clinical research. JVMS is published monthly and consists of twelve issues per year. Papers are from the areas of anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, toxicology, pathology, immunology, microbiology, virology, parasitology, internal medicine, surgery, clinical pathology, theriogenology, avian disease, public health, ethology, and laboratory animal science. Although JVMS has played a role in publishing the scientific achievements of Japanese researchers and clinicians for many years, it now also accepts papers submitted from all over the world.
