Functional genomics of pathogenic spirochetes.
Treponema pallidum and other closely related pathogenic spirochetes are obligate human parasites unable to cause diseases in other animals or to be continuously cultivated in vitro. Until now, no well defined endo- or exotoxins or other virulence factors

Differential survival of Lyme borreliosis spirochetes in ticks feeding on birds
The abilities of the most common European genospecies of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato to survive blood meals taken by ticks feeding on birds were analyzed. A pattern of differential survival of the spirochetes in feeding ticks was observed. The result

(The) prevalence of oral spirochetes in Korean adult periodontitis
치의학과/박사[한글] 본 연구에서는 한국인 성인성 치주염의 관련 세균 중에서 구강 스피로헤타의 분포를 조사하기 위하여 배양하지 않고도 구강 스피로헤타를 분리할 수 있는 16S rRNA에 의거한 올리고뉴클레오타이드 소식자를 사용하였다. 성인성 치주염 환자 29명을 대상으로 한 사람당 6mm 이상의 탐침 깊이를 보이는 부위 4곳(실험군)과 3mm 이하의 탐침 깊이를 보이는 건강한 부위 1곳(대조 1군), 건강한 치주조직을 가진 학생 20명을 ...
