The genus Borrelia reloaded

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The genus Borrelia, originally described by Swellengrebel in 1907, contains tick- or louse-transmitted spirochetes belonging to the relapsing fever (RF) group of spirochetes, the Lyme borreliosis (LB) group of spirochetes and spirochetes that form intermittent clades.

Shared flagellar epitopes of Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia anserina

Veterinary Microbiology, 1989
Antigenic cross-reactivity between Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia anserina was studied using mouse immune sera and monoclonal antibodies. With immune sera, significant cross-reactivity between B. burgdorferi and B. anserina was demonstrated by indirect immunofluorescent assay.

Borrelia Infection in Children

Acta Paediatrica, 1989
ABSTRACT. All children (15 years) admitted during 1986 to Sachs Children's Hospital and presenting signs of facial palsy and/or meningitis, or with a history of known tick bite followed by headache, fatigue and muscle pain, were investigated for antibodies to Borrelia in serum and cerebrospinal fluid.

Antigenic variation in Borrelia

Research in Microbiology, 1991
Antigenic variation was demonstrated for the agent of relapsing fever, Borrelia hermsii. The phenomenon is correlated with changes in major surface proteins called Vmp. The genes encoding these antigens are located on linear plasmids. Expression occurs by transposition of genes encoding Vmp to a telomeric expression site located on another linear ...

Borrelia meningitis in Denmark

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1987
We studied 23 patients with borrelia meningitis, a tick-borne spirochetosis increasingly recognized in Denmark. The disease showed a seasonal incidence from June to December. Twenty one patients experienced a painful sensory radiculitis, in 17 cases followed by a predominantly cranial mononeuritis multiplex mainly affecting the facial nerve (Bannwarth ...

Borrelia arthritis in Sweden

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1986
Antibodies to Borrelia spirochetes were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in sera from 298 patients with postinfectious arthritis. Sera from healthy individuals, patients with acute infectious meningitis of proven etiology and patients with multiple sclerosis served as controls. Titers above the 100% percentile of controls were

Serologic cross-reactivity of antibodies against Borrelia theileri, Borrelia burgdorferi, and Borrelia coriaceae in cattle

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1999
Abstract Objective To evaluate the immune response induced by Borrelia theileri infection and to determine whether B theileri induces cross-reacting antibodies to other bovine borreliae. Animals Two 3-month-old calves, 1 of which was splenectomized. Procedure Calves were exposed to Boophilus microplus infected with B theileri.

Genetic analysis of Borrelia

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1986
DNA homology studies were performed on Borrelia hermsii, B. duttoni, B. crocidurae and the O. coriaceus spirochete. These organisms had a genus level relationship with each other. B. hermsii was 17 to 53% homologous with B. duttoni, B. crocidurae, and the O. coriaceus spirochetes; B. crocidurae was 17-32% related to B. hermsii, B.

The Molecular Biology of Borrelia

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989
Borrelia burgdorferi, the cause of Lyme disease, has two major outer-membrane proteins, OspA and OspB, which act as surface antigens. A 49-kilobase linear plasmid contains the genes that encode for these surface proteins. Direct examination of denatured plasmid molecules has revealed single-stranded circles with a circumference of approximately 100 ...

Borrelia infection and vertigo

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1988
73 patients with vertigo were studied regarding serum antibodies to Borrelia spirochete antigen, using an indirect immunofluorescence method. Ten patients (14%) had serological evidence of Borrelia infection. All 10 patients had severe, incapacitating vertigo. Four of the Borrelia patients had positional vertigo and all 10 had positional nystagmus when
