The evolving story of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato transmission in Europe. [PDF]

Parasitol Res, 2022
AbstractBeside mosquitoes, ticks are well-known vectors of different human pathogens. In the Northern Hemisphere, Lyme borreliosis (Eurasia, LB) or Lyme disease (North America, LD) is the most commonly occurring vector-borne infectious disease caused by bacteria of the genus Borrelia which are transmitted by hard ticks of the genus Ixodes. The reported

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

Parallelisms and Contrasts in the Diverse Ecologies of the Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Borrelia burgdorferi Complexes of Bacteria in the Far Western United States. [PDF]

, 2016
Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Borrelia burgdorferi are two tick-borne bacteria that cause disease in people and animals. For each of these bacteria, there is a complex of closely related genospecies and/or strains that are genetically distinct and have ...

Investigating BB0405 as a novel Borrelia afzelii vaccination candidate in Lyme borreliosis

Scientific Reports, 2021
BB0405 is a surface exposed Borrelia burgdorferi protein and its vaccination protected mice against B. burgdorferi infection. As BB0405 is highly conserved across different B.

Modeling the effects of variable feeding patterns of larval ticks on the transmission of Borrelia lusitaniae and Borrelia afzelii [PDF]

, 2017
Spirochetes belonging to the Borrelia burgdoferi sensu lato (sl) group cause Lyme Borreliosis (LB), which is the most commonly reported vector-borne zoonosis in Europe. B. burgdorferi sl is maintained in nature in a complex cycle involving Ixodes ricinus

Immunoblot analysis of the seroreactivity to recombinant Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato antigens, including VlsE, in the long-term course of treated patients with Erythema migrans [PDF]

, 2008
Objective: We evaluated whether immunoblotting is capable of substantiating the posttreatment clinical assessment of patients with erythema migrans ( EM), the hallmark of early Lyme borreliosis.

Growth temperature ranges of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato strains [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1998
Three strains of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, representing three human pathogenic genomospecies (B31, B. burgdorferi sensu stricto; BR14, B. garinii; BR75, B. afzelii) were grown in BSK-H medium at different temperatures and the spirochaetal cells were counted by dark-field microscopy after 0, 4, 8, 16 and 48 days.
