Laboratory diagnosis of tick-borne African relapsing fevers: latest developments

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2015
In Africa, relapsing fevers caused by ectoparasite-borne Borrelia species are transmitted by ticks, with the exception of Borrelia recurrentis, which is a louse-borne spirochete.

Microcondensate‐Mediated Intracellular Infusion of mRNA Across the Plasma Membrane

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The delivery of mRNA without lipid nanoparticles remains challenging. FcB(L17E)3‐driven microcondensates with nucleic acids, aided by short ssDNA, enable coacervate formation, actin‐dependent cytosolic infusion, and in vivo protein expression, offering a potential platform for next‐generation mRNA therapeutics and vaccination.

Tick-borne Relapsing Fever in Children in the North-west of Iran, Qazvin

open access: yesPrague Medical Report, 2015
Relapsing fever is caused by the Borrelia species of spirochetes. Louse-borne epidemics of the disease may happen but the endemic disease is generally transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected tick (Ornithodorus).

Tickborne Relapsing Fever in Israel

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We evaluated the epidemiology of relapsing fever from 1971 to 2003 in Israel. In civilians, incidence declined from 0.35 to 0.11 cases per 100,000 persons annually; in military personnel it averaged 6.4 cases per 100,000 persons annually.

Identifying Relapsing Fever Borrelia, Senegal

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We describe a nested polymerase chain reaction for the identification of Borrelia species from serum of patients with unidentified fevers. This technique, based on single nucleotide polymorphisms of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene, was used to test blood ...
