Successful in vitro cultivation of Borrelia duttonii and its comparison with Borrelia recurrentis [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 1999
Borrelia duttonii, the cause of East African tick-borne relapsing fever, has until now been refractory to growth in laboratory media. This spirochaete has only be propagated in mice or by tissue culture, restricting both yield and purity of cells ...

Does RecA have a role in Borrelia recurrentis? [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011
Genomic sequencing of two relapsing fever spirochaetes showed truncation of recA in Borrelia recurrentis, but not in Borrelia duttonii. RecA has an important role among bacteria; we investigated whether this characteristic was representative of B ...

Conceptualizing histories of multispecies entanglements: Ancient pathogen genomics and the case of Borrelia recurrentis [PDF]

Journal of Social Archaeology, 2021
<p>This article explores the conceptual and cultural implications of using pathogen ancient DNA (aDNA) collected in archaeological contexts to understand the past. More specifically, it examines ancient pathogen genomics as a way of conceptualizing

Relapsing Fever Spirochetes Borrelia recurrentis and B. duttonii Acquire Complement Regulators C4b-Binding Protein and Factor H

Infection and Immunity, 2006
Relapsing fever is a rapidly progressive and severe septic disease caused by certain Borrelia spirochetes. The disease is divided into two forms, i.e., epidemic relapsing fever, caused by Borrelia recurrentis and transmitted by lice, and the endemic form,

Borrelia recurrentis Characterization and Comparison with Relapsing-Fever, Lyme-Associated, and Other Borrelia spp. [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1997
Borrelia recurrentis, the cause of louse-borne relapsing fever, has until recently been considered noncultivable, which has prevented characterization of this spirochete. We successfully cultivated 18 strains from patients with louse-borne relapsing fever and present the initial characterization of these isolates.

Infection with Borrelia recurrentis: Pathogenesis of Fever and Petechiae

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1979
Patients infected with the spirochete Borrelia recurrentis were studied to determine the cause of fever and mechanism of petechia formation. The limulus test for endotoxin was applied to plasma. Spirochetes were concentrated from the blood by differential centrifugation and tested for endotoxin activity.

Dehydrogenase activity ofBorrelia recurrentis

Experientia, 1959
Es wurde gezeigt, dassBor. recurrentis unter ublichen Bedingungen nur eine schwache Fahigkeit besitzt, verschiedene Substrate zu dehydrogenieren. In Gegenwart von reduzierenden Agentien (wie SH-Verbindungen oder Ascorbinsaure) wird diese Aktivitat hingegen bedeutend verstarkt.
