The generality of post-antimicrobial treatment persistence of replicatively-attenuated <i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i> in a mouse model

2019-04-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> A basic feature of infection caused by Borrelia burgdorferi , the etiological agent of Lyme borreliosis, is that persistent infection is the rule, not the norm, in its many hosts. The ability to persist and evade host immune clearance poses a challenge to effective antimicrobial treatment. A link between therapy failure and the presence of persister cells has started to emerge. There is growing...
