Bridging the gap: Insights in the immunopathology of Lyme borreliosis
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 54, Issue 12, December 2024.Lyme borreliosis is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato transmitted by Ixodes ticks. The disease progresses from early localized infection to more severe conditions driven by ongoing inflammation. Understanding the role of Th1/Th2 balance, B‐cell dysfunction, and autoimmunity in Lyme borreliosis pathogenesis could improve diagnosis and treatment ...
