Superior Efficacy of Combination Antibiotic Therapy versus Monotherapy in a Mouse Model of Lyme Disease

M. E. Embers, Y. Alruwaili, N. R. Hasenkampf, M. B. Jacobs, A. C. Tardo, C. McDaniel

This study shows that combination antibiotic therapy eradicates persistent Borrelia burgdorferi in mice, while monotherapy does not, suggesting potential for improved human Lyme disease treatment.

Visualizing Borrelia burgdorferi infection using a small molecule imaging probe.

M. G. Sell, D. A. Alcorta, A. E. Padilla, D. W. Nollner, N. R. Hasenkampf, H. S. Lambert, M. E. Embers, N. L. Spector

This study develops a small molecule imaging probe, HS-198, that targets B. burgdorferi's HtpG protein to visualize infection in vivo and identify the bacteria in murine models.

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

M. E. Embers, A. Krishnavjhala, B. Armstrong, M. W. Curtis, B. Pahar, H. K. Wilder, M. S. Allen, P. A. Beare, N. R. Hasenkampf, J. E. Lopez

This study investigates immune responses in Rhesus macaques infected with Borrelia turicatae, finding inflammatory mediators linked to pre-term abortion and changes in B cell populations.
