Front Aging Neurosci. 2015; 7: 46. Published online 2015 Apr 16. doi: 10.3389/fnagi.2015.00046 Judith Miklossy Abstract Following previous observations a statistically significant association between various types of spirochetes and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) fulfilled Hill’s criteria in favor of a causal relationship. If spirochetal infections can indeed cause AD, the pathological and biological hallmarks of AD…

May 23, 2016 A new urine test that could detect Lyme disease has been completed. 40% of Lyme disease patients exhibit symptoms [“Lyme disease is presently a condition difficult to spot, only about 40 percent of the patients exhibit a rash followed by the tick’s bite.”] Test looks for Lyme-causing bacteria Testing performed for three…
Abstract To identify potential vaccine candidates against Ixodes ricinus and tick-borne pathogen transmission, we have previously sequenced the salivary gland transcriptomes of female ticks infected or not with Bartonella henselae. The hypothesized potential of both IrSPI (I. ricinus serine protease inhibitor) and IrLip1 (I. ricinus lipocalin 1) as protective antigens decreasing tick feeding and/or the transmission of tick-borne pathogens was based…
Abstract Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis (HGA) is an infection caused by the intracellular bacterium Anaplasma phagocytophilum. As a tick-borne disease, the public health impact of HGA continues to increase with range expansion of the disease vector. The clinical presentation of HGA is often a non-specific febrile illness. The presence of leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and mild hepatic injury are frequently noted…
