Abstract
⺠Anaplasma marginale infects cattle for years by parasitizing red blood cells. ⺠Red blood cells only circulate for about four months and then are phagocytized. ⺠Prior in vitro work suggested that endothelial cells might also be infected. ⺠In vivo endothelial cell infection was investigated by multiple techniques. ⺠No conclusive proof of A. marginale endothelial cell infection in vivo was found.
