Active immunization with pC protein ofBorrelia burgdorferi protects gerbils againstB. burgdorferi infection

Infection, 1992
Serious infection due to Borrelia burgdorferi and the disseminated infection characteristic of the disease possess unique treatment problems. The wide and still increasing incidence of Lyme borreliosis as well as the problems in treatment call for effective prevention strategies by active immunization.

Infection by Borrelia burgdorferi and cutaneous B‐cell lymphoma

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 1997
In past years, association of primary cutaneous B‐cell lymphoma (CBCL) with infection by Borrelia burgdorferi has been reported in a few patients. The evidence for a pathogenetic role was based on clinical grounds or raised titre of antibodies in serum.

Borrelia burgdorferi outer surface protein (osp) B expression independent of ospA

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2004
The outer surface proteins (Osp) A and B are two important lipoproteins of Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme disease spirochete. Extensive in vitro studies indicate that ospB shares a common promoter with ospA and thus these two lipoprotein genes are coordinately transcribed. We show here that B.

Modulation of Cytokine Signaling by B. burgdorferi

2012
Lyme disease, caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, is a multisystem disease and the most prevalent tick-borne disease world-wide. The spirochete infects humans and other mammals via the bite of infected Ixodes ticks (Burgdorfer et al. 1982).

Prognostic B-cell epitopes on the flagellar protein of Borrelia burgdorferi

Infection and Immunity, 1992
Overlapping decapeptides based on the flagellin sequence of Borrelia burgdorferi B31 (G. S. Gassmann, M. Kramer, U. B. Göbel, and R. Wallich, Nucleic Acids Res. 17:3590, 1989) were used to identify immunologically reactive regions of flagellin. Five serum specimens from patients with late manifestations of Lyme disease and borrelia-specific monoclonal ...

Three species of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, B afzelii, and B. garinii) identified from cerebrospinal fluid isolates by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and PCR

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1996
A total of 36 European Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato cerebrospinal fluid isolates (mainly from southern Germany) were analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) for large restriction fragment pattern (LRFP) and linear plasmid profiles. Analyzing this large panel of isolates, we detected all three species of B.

Surface receptors of neutrophils towards B. burgdorferi.

Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 1999
The spirochetal agent of Lyme borreliosis, Borrelia burgdorferi, is able to induce an infection which develops in three stages: an early, localized infection, disseminated infection and a third stage, chronic infection, which probably indicates that a protected niche has been established in one or more tissues, where the spirochetes persist even if a ...

PREDOMINANCE OF BORRELIA BURGDORFERI SPECIFIC B CELLS IN CEREBROSPINAL FLUID IN NEUROBORRELIOSIS

The Lancet, 1989
A nitrocellulose immunospot assay that allows the counting of cells secreting IgG, IgA, or IgM antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi was used to compare B cell response to B burgdorferi at the cellular level in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood from patients with neuroborreliosis with that in patients with aseptic meningoencephalitis (AM) or non ...

Prevalence of taste disorders in idiopathic and B. burgdorferi-associated facial palsy

Journal of Neurology, 2009
The frequency of taste disorders in idiopathic facial palsy (IFP) and B. burgdorferi-associated facial palsy (BFP) was retrospectively assessed in a cohort of patients with acute peripheral facial palsy (AFP). A significant (>10/microl) CSF pleocytosis was found in 17% of the patients who underwent lumbar puncture for AFP.
