<i>Coxiella burnetii</i> establishes a small cell variant (SCV)-like persistent form to survive adverse intracellular conditions
2025-09-18
Abstract excerpt
Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular zoonotic bacterium that causes Q fever. Infections can be either acute or chronic. Of note, chronic Q fever develops months or years after primary infection without clinical symptoms, suggesting bacterial persistence.
