Cytokine expression in Treponema pallidum infection [PDF]
Current syphilis tests cannot distinguish between active and past syphilis among patients with serofast rapid plasma reagin (RPR) titers. We investigated whether cytokine profiles might provide insight in the differentiation of active and treated syphilis.We collected quarterly serum samples from participants at risk for incident syphilis in a ...

In Vitro Susceptibility of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum to Doxycycline
Doxycycline is regarded as an effective therapy for early syphilis, and there is increasing interest in using doxycycline for prophylaxis of this infection. However, the MIC of doxycycline for Treponema pallidum subsp.

Time series model based on global structure of complete genome [PDF]
A time series model based on the global structure of the complete genome is proposed. Three kinds of length sequences of the complete genome are considered. The correlation dimensions and Hurst exponents of the length sequences are calculated.

Multiple Alleles ofTreponema pallidumRepeat Gene D inTreponema pallidumIsolates [PDF]
ABSTRACTTwo newtprDalleles have been identified inTreponema pallidum:tprD2is found in 7 of 12T. pallidumsubsp.pallidumisolates and 7 of 8 non-pallidumisolates, andtprD3is found in oneT. pallidumsubsp.pertenueisolate. Antibodies against TprD2 are found in persons with syphilis, demonstrating thattprD2is expressed during infection.

Surface Mucopolysaccharides of Treponema pallidum [PDF]
The viscous mucoid fluid that accumulates within syphilitic lesions may be due to breakdown of host tissue during infection, or may be synthesized by Treponema pallidum. Experiments were performed to investigate the acidic mucopolysaccharides that occur at the surface of T.
