Development and application of the technique for identification of Borrelia miyamotoi surface antigens

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2021
Introduction. Borrelia miyamotoi is a pathogen causing erythema-free ixodid tick-borne borreliosis (ITBB), a disease widespread in Russia. The genome of B. miyamotoi contains genes of multiple variable major proteins (Vmps). Vmps fall into two families —

Tick‐borne relapsing fever as a potential veterinary medical problem

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 271-279, November 2018., 2018
Tick‐Borne Relapsing Fever is emerging as an important veterinary medical problem. Abstract Tick‐borne relapsing fever (TBRF) caused by the bacteria Borrelia, is poorly documented in veterinary medicine. Given the widespread presence of the soft tick vectors – Ornithodoros and the recently discovered hard tick vectors, as well as their close ...

Utility of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto C6 Peptide for Serologic Confirmation of Erythema‐Free Ixodid Tick‐Borne Borrelioses in Russia

BioMed Research International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
We evaluated the utility of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (Bb) peptide C6 for serologic confirmation of Ixodid Tick‐Borne Borrelioses (ITBB) in Russia. Serum samples (N = 1089) were from erythema migrans (EM) (N = 327) and the EM‐free (EMF) patients (N = 115); in some patients, the disease was accompanied by human granulocytic anaplasmosis or tick‐

Epidemiological Manifestations Ixodid Tick-Borne Borreliosies in Irkutsk and in other Parts of the Eurasian Area

Epidemiology and Vaccinal Prevention, 2019
Background. Ixodid tick-borne borrelioses (ITBB) is the most prevalent in Northern Hemisphere group of transmissible Spirochaetal infections, ecologically connected with Ixodid ticks. ITBB are etiologically associated with several agents, which determine epidemiological and clinical manifestations of these diseases.

Soluble cysteine‐rich tick saliva proteins Salp15 and Iric‐1 fromE. coli

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 42-55, January 01, 2015., 2015
Tick saliva proteins Salp15 and Iric‐1 promote tick feeding and pathogen transmission. We established the first bacterial expression system for soluble Salp15 and Iric‐1. Using this system we mapped monoclonal antibody epitopes on Salp15 and Iric‐1. We defined the interaction sites with Borrelia outer surface protein C (OspC).

First detection of Borrelia miyamotoi in Ixodes ricinus ticks from northern Italy

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Borrelia miyamotoi is a spirochete transmitted by several ixodid tick species. It causes a relapsing fever in humans and is currently considered as an emerging pathogen. In Europe, B.

Evaluating Frequency, Diagnostic Quality, and Cost of Lyme Borreliosis Testing in Germany: A Retrospective Model Analysis

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Background. Data on the economic impact of Lyme borreliosis (LB) on European health care systems is scarce. This project focused on the epidemiology and costs for laboratory testing in LB patients in Germany. Materials and Methods. We performed a sentinel analysis of epidemiological and medicoeconomic data for 2007 and 2008.

Temporal Changes in Tick‐Borne Pathogen Prevalence in Questing Ixodes ricinus Across Different Habitats in the North‐Eastern Italian Alps

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 6, December 2024.
This study examines the prevalence of tick‐borne pathogens in Ixodes ricinus ticks in the north‐eastern Italian Alps. It found an average infection rate of 27.1%, with 11 zoonotic pathogens identified, showing varying infection rates across different years and habitats.
