Antibody-resistant mutants of Borrelia burgdorferi: in vitro selection and characterization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We used polyclonal antisera and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to inhibit the growth of clonal populations of two strains of Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme disease agent, and thereby select for antibody-resistant mutants.

Structural characterisation of outer membrane proteins from Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato by small-angle X-ray scattering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Forming the interface between the bacterial cell and the host, the outer membrane of Borrelia is known to play a key role in pathogenicity. Although Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato are considered to be Gram-negative, their outer membrane is unique ...

Borna disease virus infection: Retrospective case series of five horses and two donkeys in Switzerland

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Borna disease is an acute to subacute, rarely chronic non‐purulent meningoencephaylomyelitis affecting mainly horses and sheep. This case series describes the clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment, outcome and post‐mortem findings of five horses and two donkeys with this condition. The equids affected were geldings or mares of various breeds and

Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.

Ability to cause erythema migrans differs between Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato isolates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Lyme borreliosis is a tick-borne disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. The variety of characteristic and non-specific clinical manifestations is partially explained by its genetic diversity.

Electrophoretic patterns of proteinuria in dogs with Cushing’s syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To describe the electrophoretic pattern of proteinuria in dogs with naturally occurring Cushing’s syndrome. We hypothesised that urine protein electrophoresis in dogs with spontaneous Cushing’s syndrome will reveal glomerular proteinuria. We also hypothesised that the severity of proteinuria would decrease during treatment with trilostane ...

Clinical Aspects and Detection of Emerging Rickettsial Pathogens: A “One Health” Approach Study in Serbia, 2020

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Ticks carry numerous pathogens that, if transmitted, can cause disease in susceptible humans and animals. The present study describes our approach on how to investigate clinical presentations following tick bites in humans. To this aim, the occurrence of

Detection of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia aktasi in a wild bezoar goat (Capra aegagrus): Overlap with domestic goat strains

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first molecular detection of tick‐borne pathogens in Capra aegagrus. Genetic analysis reveals similarities between Babesia aktasi and Anaplasma phagocytophilum strains in bezoar and domestic goats, indicating potential pathogen exchange.

Regional seropositivity for Borrelia burgdorferi and associated risk factors: findings from the Rhineland Study, Germany

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Lyme borreliosis is the most prevalent vector-borne disease in Europe, and numbers might increase due to climate change. However, borreliosis is not notifiable in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany.
