Toward a Complete North American Borrelia miyamotoi Genome [PDF]
Genome Announcements, 2017 ABSTRACT Borrelia miyamotoi , of the relapsing-fever spirochete group, is an emerging tick-borne pathogen causing human illness in the northern hemisphere. Here, we present the chromosome, eight extrachromosomal linear plasmids, and a draft sequence for five circular and one linear plasmid of a Borrelia ...

Human Borrelia miyamotoi Infection in the United States [PDF]
New England Journal of Medicine, 2013 A tickborne pathogen, Borrelia miyamotoi, has recently been shown to cause disease in humans. A serologic survey showed that infection with this organism is not uncommon in the Northeast.

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.

Molecular detection and phylogenetic analysis of Borrelia miyamotoi strains from ticks collected in the capital region of Finland [PDF]
, 2022 Borrelia miyamotoi is an emerging pathogen that shares high similarity with relapsing fever Borrelia, but has an atypical clinical presentation. Within the framework of tick-borne disease surveillance in Finland, human serum samples suspected for tick ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.We developed and validated a copy number variation (CNV)‐based molecular method to accurately determine the sex of immature ticks, Ixodes scapularis and Rhipicephalus microplus, which lack morphological sexual dimorphism. Using qPCR and ddPCR assays targeting female‐enriched genes, sex was reliably identified from DNA extracted non‐destructively from a

Long-term in vitro cultivation of Borrelia miyamotoi
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2015 Borrelia are fastidious bacteria some of which are difficult to grow in vitro. Here, we report a method for successful continuous in vitro cultivation of the emerging pathogen Borrelia miyamotoi. The type and quantity of serum as well as the atmosphere were critical for successful in vitro cultivation. Optimal growth was achieved using 50% pooled human

Meningoencephalitis fromBorrelia miyamotoiin an Immunocompromised Patient [PDF]
New England Journal of Medicine, 2013 Ixodes ticks serve as vectors for Borrelia burgdorferi, the agent of Lyme disease. Globally, these ticks often concurrently harbor B. miyamotoi, a spirochete that is classified within the relapsing-fever group of spirochetes. Although humans presumably are exposed to B. miyamotoi, there are limited data suggesting disease attributable to it.

644. Borrelia miyamotoi and Borrelia burgdorferi Seroprevalence in New England [PDF]
Open Forum Infect Dis, 2020 Abstract Background Diseases vectored by the tick species Ixodes scapularis have increased in incidence over the past 50 years and have been expanding into previously non-endemic areas. The emergence of Borrelia miyamotoi, a recently described spirochetal pathogen, has been less well documented than ...

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.ABSTRACTIxodes scapularis ticks transmit a number of pathogens important to human health, including Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, the causative agent of Lyme disease. While I. scapularis is found across the Eastern United States, Lyme disease transmission is largely limited to the Northeast and Upper Midwest and is nearly absent in the South ...
