Complement evasion strategies of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 2020
Borreliosis (Lyme disease) is a spirochetal disease caused by the species complex of Borrelia burgdorferi transmitted by Ixodes spp. ticks. Recorded to be the most common tick‐borne disease in the world, the last two decades have seen an increase in disease incidence and distribution, exceeding 360 000 cases in Europe alone. If untreated, infection may

Isolation, cultivation, and in vitro susceptibility testing of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato: A review [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2013
Lyme borreliosis is the most common vector-borne disease in the northern hemisphere. The agents of Lyme borreliosis are borrelia, bacteria of the family Spirochaetaceae, which are grouped in Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato species complex.

First report of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto detection in a commune genospecies in Apodemus agrarius in Gwangju, South Korea

Scientific Reports, 2021
Lyme disease is a tick-borne infectious disease caused by the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex. However, the distribution of Borrelia genospecies and the tissue detection rate of Borrelia in wild rodents have rarely been investigated.

Natural history of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. [PDF]

Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 1999
Lyme borreliosis is a zoonosis: its causative agent, B: burgdorferi, circulates between ticks and a large range of vertebrates. Identification of the hosts which are responsible for the infection of the vectors is extremely important to determine the potential risk of infection in an habitat.

Borrelia miyamotoi sensu lato Seroreactivity and Seroprevalence in the Northeastern United States

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
Borrelia miyamotoi sensu lato, a relapsing fever Borrelia sp., is transmitted by the same ticks that transmit B. burgdorferi (the Lyme disease pathogen) and occurs in all Lyme disease–endemic areas of the United States. To determine the seroprevalence of

Whole genome sequence and comparative analysis of Borrelia burgdorferi MM1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Lyme disease is caused by spirochaetes of the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato genospecies. Complete genome assemblies are available for fewer than ten strains of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, the primary cause of Lyme disease in North America.

Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato prevalence in tick populations in Estonia [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2013
Estonia is located in a unique area of co-distribution of Ixodes ricinus and I. persulcatus, which are the main tick vectors of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. In the last decade, the incidence rate of Lyme borreliosis in Estonia has increased dramatically up to 115.4 per 100,000 in 2012.

Genotypic variation and mixtures of Lyme Borrelia in Ixodes ticks from North America and Europe. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Lyme disease, caused by various species of Borrelia, is transmitted by Ixodes ticks in North America and Europe. Studies have shown the genotype of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (s.s.) or the species of B.

Evaluation of a modified culture medium for Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007
The aim of the present study was to assess the possible use of a modified medium, prepared in the laboratory using the constituents of Barbour-Stonner-Kelly (BSK) medium and medium 199 as base, for the culture of Borrelia strains, comparing the growth of individual strains in this medium and in the BSK-H medium, and the protein profile and antigenic ...
