Borrelia PeptideAtlas: A proteome resource of common Borrelia burgdorferi isolates for Lyme research. [PDF]

Sci Data
Lyme disease is caused by an infection with the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, and is the most common vector-borne disease in North America. B. burgdorferi isolates harbor extensive genomic and proteomic variability and further comparison of isolates ...

Suppression of Long-Lived Humoral Immunity Following Borrelia burgdorferi Infection. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2015
Lyme Disease caused by infection with Borrelia burgdorferi is an emerging infectious disease and already by far the most common vector-borne disease in the U.S. Similar to many other infections, infection with B.

Borrelia Burgdorferi

Methods in Molecular Biology
Since its recent discovery in the late 1970s, Lyme Disease (LD) has been a growing public health concern, especially in the United States where it accounts for the majority of vector-borne infections each year.

Borrelia burgdorferi Sensu Lato in Questing and Engorged Ticks from Different Habitat Types in Southern Germany

Microorganisms, 2021
Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) causes the most common tick-borne infection in Europe, with Germany being amongst the countries with the highest incidences in humans. This study aimed at (1) comparing infection rates of B. burgdorferi s.l.

Seroprevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Anaplasma phagocytophilum Infections in German Horses

Animals, 2023
There are limited data on Lyme borreliosis (LB), a tick-borne disease caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex, in horses. Seropositivity is not necessarily associated with clinical disease.

New geographical records for tick‐borne pathogens in ticks collected from cattle in Benin and Togo

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 345-352, January 2023., 2023
A total of 396 ticks were collected from cattle between 2019 and 2020, and divided in pools (two to six ticks per pool) for molecular screening. The present study highlights the presence of zoonotic agents in ticks collected from cattle in Benin and Togo.

Ruffed grouse do not exhibit high potential for reservoir competency of common tick‐borne pathogens

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 46, Issue 5, December 2022., 2022
Blacklegged ticks are vectors for Borrelia burgdorferi and Anaplasma phagocytophilum transmission, thus we sought to identify ruffed grouse as an alternative host of blacklegged ticks by testing for active and previous infections of tick‐borne pathogens. We failed to detect active, or evidence of previous, B.

Interactions between Borrelia burgdorferi and ticks

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2020
Borrelia burgdorferi is the causative agent of Lyme disease and is transmitted to vertebrate hosts by Ixodes spp. ticks. The spirochaete relies heavily on its arthropod host for basic metabolic functions and has developed complex interactions with ticks ...

Tissue‐damaging marking methods do not affect tick burdens on field captured Peromyscus spp.

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 46, Issue 5, December 2022., 2022
Small mammals are important hosts for Ixodes scapularis, particularly white‐footed mice and deer mice from the genus Peromyscus. We evaluate three tissue‐damaging marking methods to determine if any method affects the tick burden on captured mice. There were no significant differences in tick burden on captured mice among the tissue‐damaging marking ...
