Excerpt:

The obligately intracellular bacterium Ehrlichia chaffeensis that resides in
mononuclear phagocytes is the causative agent of human monocytotropic
ehrlichiosis. Ehrlichia muris and Ixodes ovatus Ehrlichia (IOE) are agents
of mouse models of ehrlichiosis. The mechanism by which Ehrlichia are
transported from an infected host cell to a non-infected cell has not been
demonstrated.
