从日本北海道的西卡鹿（Cervus nippon yesoensis）外周血样品中检测到瑞士立克次体柠檬酸合酶和17-kDa基因的部分核苷酸序列。结果提示存在与瑞士立克次体相关的立克次体血症。这是R. helvetica感染的西卡鹿，并表明该物种可能是一个潜在的水库主机的R。Helvetica在日本
Partial nucleotide sequences of the citrate synthase and 17-kDa genes of Rickettsia helvetica were detected from peripheral blood samples of Sika deer (Cervus nippon yesoensis) in Hokkaido, Japan. Results suggest the presence of a rickettsiemia associated wit helvetica. This is the first evidence of R. helvetica infection in Sika deer and indicates that this species may represent a potential reservoir host of R. helvetica in Japan.
