Cellular Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2021., 2021 TLR4 stimulation in C3H/HeN mice by B. burgdorferi by unknown (indicated by a question mark) ligand(s) early in infection causes suppression of TLR2 expression. An increase in TLR2 expression in C3H/HeJ mice in the absence of a functional TLR4 possibly enhances signaling by Tri‐Acylated lipoproteins of colonized B.

Lyme Disease in the Era of COVID‐19: A Delayed Diagnosis and Risk for Complications
Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 We describe a patient with fever and myalgia who did not have COVID‐19 but instead had Lyme disease. We propose that the co‐occurrence of COVID‐19 and Lyme disease during the spring of 2020 resulted in a delayed diagnosis of Lyme disease due to COVID‐19 pandemic‐related changes in healthcare workflow and diagnostic reasoning.
