Borrelia miyamotoi : ウィキペディア英語版 | Borrelia miyamotoi
''Borrelia miyamotoi'' is a spirochete bacterium in the genus ''Borrelia''. A zoonotic bacterium, ''B. miyamotoi'' can be transferred to humans through the deer tick (''Ixodes scapularis''), the same tick species that spreads ''B. burgdorferi'', the causative agent of Lyme disease, and ''Babesia microti'', the causative agent of babesiosis. Although infection can cause some similar symptoms including fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle aches, acute Lyme disease often presents with rash, while infection with ''B. miyamotoi'' does not; it remains unclear whether ''B. miyamotoi'' causes a relapsing fever syndrome. == Etymology == A genus of Gram-negative, anaerobic, spirochete bacteria, ''Borrelia'' was named after French biologist Amédée Borrel. In 1995, Masahito Fukunaga ''et al.'' isolated a novel ''Borrelia'' species and named it ''Borrelia miyamotoi'' in honor of Kenji Miyamoto, who first isolated spirochetes from ixodid ticks in Hokkaido, Japan. 〔 〕
