Immunological responses to the relapsing fever spirochete Borrelia turicatae in infected Rhesus macaques: implications for pathogenesis and diagnosis.

2018-12-21

Abstract excerpt

The global public health impact of relapsing fever (RF) spirochetosis is significant, as the pathogens exist on five of seven continents. The hallmark sign of infection is episodic fever and the greatest threat is to the unborn. With the goal of better understanding the specificity of B cell responses and the role of immune responses in pathogenicity, we infected Rhesus macaques with Borrelia turicatae (a new worl...
