Microbiological Evidence of Etiology «Ixodes Tick-Borne Borreliosis without Erythema Migrans» - Infection Caused by Borrelia miyamotoi

Эпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика, 2017
Background. The spirochete Borrelia miyamotoi belongs to the group of borrelia causing tick-borne relapsing fevers. It is transmitted by the same tick species as Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and is widespread in temperate climate zones of Eurasia and ...

Borrelia miyamotoi in vectors and hosts in The Netherlands

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2017
Ixodes ticks transmit Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.), the causative agent of Lyme borreliosis (LB). These tick species also transmit Borrelia miyamotoi, which was recently found to cause infections in humans. We were interested in the prevalence of B.

Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterase Identified as Non-Reliable Serological Marker for Borrelia miyamotoi Disease [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2020
The relapsing fever group Borrelia miyamotoi is an emerging tick-borne pathogen. Diagnosis of infection is currently mainly based on serological methods detecting antibodies against B. miyamotoi glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase (GlpQ).

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

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

Borrelia miyamotoi Infections in Humans and Ticks, Northeastern China [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We conducted an investigation of Borrelia miyamotoi infections in humans and ticks in northeastern China. Of 984 patients reporting recent tick bites, 14 (1.4%) were found to be infected with B. miyamotoi by PCR and genomic sequencing. The 14 patients had nonspecific febrile manifestations, including fever, headache, anorexia, asthenia, and arthralgia.

Dynamics of Spirochetemia and Early PCR Detection of Borrelia miyamotoi [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We investigated whether Borrelia miyamotoi disease can be detected in its early stage by using PCR for borrelial 16S rRNA, which molecule (DNA or RNA) is the best choice for this test, and whether spirochetes are present in blood during the acute phase of B. miyamotoi disease.

BACTERICIDAL EFFECT OF HUMAN SERUM ON BORRELIA MIYAMOTOI, CAUSATIVE AGENT OF IXODES TICK-BORNE BORRELIOSIS

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2018
Aim. In this paper we investigate the impacts of co-incubation of Borrelia miyamotoi with neutrophils. Materials and methods. Spirochetes B. miyamotoi, strain HT31, were incubated 3 hours at 37°C with neutrophils of healthy donors (5*106 cells/ml) in a 1:

Two Cases of Borrelia miyamotoi Meningitis, Sweden, 2018 [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
We report 2 human cases of Borrelia miyamotoi disease diagnosed in Sweden, including 1 case of meningitis in an apparently immunocompetent patient. The diagnoses were confirmed by 3 different independent PCR assays and DNA sequencing from cerebrospinal fluid, supplemented by serologic analyses.
