Abstract

This study investigated cell-mediated immune responses in Lyme disease in the rhesus macaque model. We focused on the cellular responses to p39 of B. burgdorferi, a highly immunogenic lipoprotein putatively localized to the spirochete surface. Previous studies in our lab showed that peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from tick-inoculated rhesus respond marginally (4
