Prevalence and clinical manifestation of Borrelia miyamotoi in Ixodes ticks and humans in the northern hemisphere: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The Lancet Microbe, 2022
BACKGROUND Various studies have evaluated the infection of Ixodes ticks and humans with the relapsing fever spirochaete Borrelia miyamotoi. However, to our knowledge, the prevalence of infection and disease has not been assessed systematically.

First detection of Borrelia miyamotoi infections in ticks and humans from the northeast of Inner Mongolia, China.

Acta Tropica, 2021
Borrelia miyamotoi is a relapsing fever spirochete that can cause chills, fatigue, headache, myalgia, arthralgia, and even meningitis, damaging human health. B. miyamotoi has a wide distribution since its discovery in in Ixodes persulcatus in 1994.

When to Think About Other Borreliae:: Hard Tick Relapsing Fever (Borrelia miyamotoi), Borrelia mayonii, and Beyond.

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2022
In North America, several hard tick-transmitted Borrelia species other than Borrelia burgdorferi cause human disease, including Borrelia miyamotoi, Borrelia mayonii, and possibly Borrelia bissettii.

Laboratory Cultivation and Maintenance of Borrelia miyamotoi

Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2016
AbstractBorrelia miyamotoi is a relapsing fever tick‐borne pathogen found in Ixodes spp. (hard) ticks. In vitro culturing has proven difficult despite initial reports of cultures maintained in Barbour‐Stoenner‐Kelly‐II (BSK‐II) medium. The ability to culture in vitro opens many avenues for investigating the genetics and physiology of bacterial species.
