Phylogenetic alignments for B. burgdorferi and B. miyamotoi aligned sequences.
, 2022 B. burgdorferi (A) and B. miyamotoi (B) aligned sequences were run through Clustal Omega to produce phylogenetic trees. Additional sequences retrieved from Genbank were included in the trees. All sequences have their accession number, and where they come

Borrelia miyamotoi sensu lato Seroreactivity and Seroprevalence in the Northeastern United States
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014 Borrelia miyamotoi sensu lato, a relapsing fever Borrelia sp., is transmitted by the same ticks that transmit B. burgdorferi (the Lyme disease pathogen) and occurs in all Lyme disease–endemic areas of the United States. To determine the seroprevalence of

Hyperglycemia Impairs Neutrophil-Mediated Bacterial Clearance in Mice Infected with the Lyme Disease Pathogen. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Insulin-insufficient type 1 diabetes is associated with attenuated bactericidal function of neutrophils, which are key mediators of innate immune responses to microbes as well as pathological inflammatory processes.

An optimized SYBR Green I/PI assay for rapid viability assessment and antibiotic susceptibility testing for Borrelia burgdorferi. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Lyme disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi is the most common tick-borne disease in the US and Europe. Unlike most bacteria, measurements of growth and viability of B. burgdorferi are challenging. The current B.

Human neuroglial cells internalize Borrelia burgdorferi by coiling phagocytosis mediated by Daam1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Borrelia burgdorferi, the agent of Lyme borreliosis, can elude hosts' innate and adaptive immunity as part of the course of infection. The ability of B. burgdorferi to invade or be internalized by host cells in vitro has been proposed as a mechanism for ...

Genotypic variation and mixtures of Lyme Borrelia in Ixodes ticks from North America and Europe. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Lyme disease, caused by various species of Borrelia, is transmitted by Ixodes ticks in North America and Europe. Studies have shown the genotype of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (s.s.) or the species of B.
