Some bacterial pathogens can manipulate the angiogenic response, suppressing or
inducing it for their own ends. In humans, Bartonella henselae is associated with cat-scratch …

The vasculotropic pathogen Bartonella henselae (Bh) intimately interacts with human
endothelial cells (ECs) and subverts multiple cellular functions. Here we report that Bh …

The ability to induce endothelial cell proliferation is a common feature of human pathogenic
Bartonella species. Recent data have indicated that bartonellae can provoke …

Bartonella henselae is a gram-negative pathogen that causes angiogenesis. Here, I
establish in vitro models to study Bartonella-induced blood vessel formation. I found that B …

The facultative intracellular bacterium Bartonella henselae induces unique angiogenic
lesions in immunocompromised hosts. To determine the role of intracellular calcium pools in …

The proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cocultivated with live
B. henselae was enhanced in a bacterial dose-dependent manner, and the stimulatory effect …

The emerging human pathogen Bartonella henselae has the remarkable capacity to
colonise vascular tissues and to stimulate vasoproliferative tumour growth. Although the …

Bacillary angiomatosis (BA), one of the many clinical manifestations resulting from infection
with the facultative intracellular bacterium Bartonella henselae, is characterized by …

Bartonella henselae, a zoonotic agent, induces tumors of endothelial cells (ECs), namely
bacillary angiomatosis and peliosis in immunosuppressed humans but not in cats. In vitro …

Bartonellae are arthropod-borne bacterial pathogens that typically cause persistent infection
of erythrocytes and endothelial cells in their mammalian hosts. In human infection, these …
