Borrelia burgdorferi infection modifies protein content in saliva of Ixodes scapularis nymphs
BACKGROUND: Lyme disease (LD) caused by Borrelia burgdorferi is the most prevalent tick-borne disease. There is evidence that vaccines based on tick proteins that promote tick transmission of B. burgdorferi could prevent LD. As Ixodes scapularis nymph tick bites are responsible for most LD cases, th...
