Identification and functional characterisation of Complement Regulator Acquiring Surface Protein-1 of serum resistant Borrelia garinii OspA serotype 4 [PDF]

, 2010
Background: B. burgdorferi sensu lato (sl) is the etiological agent of Lyme borreliosis in humans. Spirochetes have adapted themselves to the human immune system in many distinct ways.

Seroprevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in Danish horses

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2010
Background Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Anaplasma phagocytophilum are able to infect horses. However, the extend to which Danish horses are infected and seroconvert due to these two bacteria is unknown. The aim of the present study was to evaluate

Antibodies against Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato among Adults, Germany, 2008–2011 [PDF]

, 2015
To assess Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (the cause of Lyme borreliosis) seropositivity in Germany, we tested serum samples from health survey (2008–2011) participants.

Genospecies of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato detected in 16 mammal species and questing ticks from northern Europe

Scientific Reports, 2019
Lyme borreliosis is the most common vector-borne zoonosis in the northern hemisphere, and the pathogens causing Lyme borreliosis have distinct, incompletely described transmission cycles involving multiple host groups.

Multiplex PCR for molecular screening of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Anaplasma spp. and Babesia spp.

, 2015
Introduction Ticks transmit a great variety of pathogenic microorganisms to humans and animals. The detection of tick-borne pathogens (TBP) is mainly by molecular techniques based on polymerase chain reactions (PCR).

Homogeneous Inflammatory Gene Profiles Induced in Human Dermal Fibroblasts in Response to the Three Main Species of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
In Lyme borreliosis, the skin is the key site for bacterial inoculation by the infected tick and for cutaneous manifestations. We previously showed that different strains of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto isolated from tick and from different ...

Citizen Science Tick Observations Serve as an Early Warning System for Tick‐Borne Diseases

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 234-243, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick observation data collected through citizen science is increasingly utilised to map tick‐borne infection risk areas indirectly, that is, based on the rate of tick encounters or occurrence of ticks. However, direct associations between tick observations and Lyme borreliosis (LB) cases have received little attention.

Multiomics Reveals Symbionts, Pathogens, and Tissue-Specific Microbiome of Blacklegged Ticks (Ixodes scapularis) from a Lyme Disease Hot Spot in Southeastern Ontario, Canada

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Ticks in the family Ixodidae are important vectors of zoonoses, including Lyme disease (LD), which is caused by spirochete bacteria from the Borreliella (Borrelia) burgdorferi sensu lato complex.

Identification and mapping of potential and highly likely vectors for selected vector‐borne diseases in the EU and neighbouring countries

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This report addresses Term of Reference 1.2 by providing a comprehensive knowledge‐mapping of arthropod vector species competent to transmit selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) including VBDs listed under Regulation (EU) 2016/429 and Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as additional non‐listed pathogens with potential epidemiological relevance.

Synthesis of Th17 cytokines in the culture of peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato

, 2016
Introduction and objective Th17 lymphocytes and their cytokines, interleukin 17A (IL-17A), IL-17F and IL-22, participate in the response to extracellular bacteria and in the autoimmunity and may be engaged in the pathogenesis of Lyme borreliosis ...
