Colonization and pathology of Borrelia afzelii in its natural hosts

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2019
Studies of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in laboratory mice and humans have shown that spirochaetes disseminate from the site of infection (skin) to internal tissues, and cause various pathological effects. However, less is known about colonization and pathology of Lyme borreliosis spirochaetes in their natural hosts.

Borrelia valaisiana resist complement-mediated killing independently of the recruitment of immune regulators and inactivation of complement components [PDF]

, 2013
Spirochetes belonging to the Borrelia (B.) burgdorferi sensu lato complex differ in their resistance to complement-mediated killing, particularly in regard to human serum.

Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. and its genetic variability in five European countries

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
The Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. complex is known for its complex genome and significant genetic variability. We used multilocus sequence typing (MLST) to study the genetic variability of Borrelia in five European countries: Slovakia, Croatia, Ukraine ...

Could the Optiplex Borrelia assay replace the traditional, two-step method of diagnosing Lyme disease?

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2022
Introduction and objective Serological assays for Lyme disease (LD) routinely performed in laboratories often give inconclusive results, thereby making correct diagnosis difficult and delaying treatment.
