Clinical Infectious Diseases, Vol. 25, Supplement 1. Basic and Clinical Approaches to Lyme Disease: A Lyme Disease Foundation Symposium (Jul., 1997), pp. S2-S8 (7 pages) Lyme disease is a persistent ...
Background. The effect of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α treatment in Borrelia burgdorferi-infected and ceftriaxone-treated C3H/He mice was evaluated. Methods. Mice were infected with B. garinii ...
When Chunhao (Chris) Li joined the faculty in the Department of Oral Biology, School of Dental Medicine, in 2005, he put UB on the map of research hotspots in the effort to better understand ...
The bacterial pathogens that cause Lyme disease and syphilis are highly invasive. These pathogens, or spirochetes, can invade the central nervous system and, in the case of syphilis, enter the ...
This project builds on recent work reporting tick transmission of relapsing fever spirochetes and genome sequencing of both the pathogen and tick vector. We have utilized both next generation and ...
“This is the first evidence of spirochetes in a fossil tick prior to Homo,” says George Poinar, Jr., a palaeoentomologist and parasitologist at Oregon State University, and author of the new paper.
When an infected tick bites a human, the waiting spirochetes—which live essentially dormant in the tick’s gut until environmental cues such as changes in temperature and oxygen availability awaken ...
Three centuries after a pioneering Dutch microbiologist first observed the spiral-shaped oral pathogen Treponema denticola, scientists have deciphered the bacterium's entire DNA sequence and used ...
