Identification of Borrelia species after creation of an in-house MALDI-TOF MS database.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Lyme borreliosis (LB) is a multisystemic disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (sl) complex transmitted to humans by Ixodes ticks. B. burgdorferi sl complex, currently comprising at least 19 genospecies, includes the main pathogenic species ...

The Effect of B. burgdorferi Infection on Cytokine Expression of the Mammalian Host

, 2023
Lyme disease, or Lyme borreliosis, is a multi-organ, zoonotic disease predominant in the northern hemisphere. Lyme borreliosis is caused by different members of the genus Borrelia, most notably Borrelia burgdorferi. The spirochete is transmitted to humans by a tick vector during its blood meal.
