Alterations in Germinal Center Formation and B Cell Activation during Severe <i>Orientia tsutsugamushi</i> Infection in Mice
2023-01-13
Abstract excerpt
Scrub typhus is a poorly studied but life-threatening disease caused by the intracellular bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi ( Ot ). Cellular and humoral immunity in Ot -infected patients is not long-lasting, waning as early as one-year post-infection; however, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To date, no studies have examined germinal center (GC) or B cell responses in Ot -infected humans or experiment...
