In order to investigate the prevalence of B.burgdorferi sensu lato in rodents from Jiangxi province of southeastern China. Isolation of B.burgdoferi strains and PCR-based studies were carried out in 204 mice collected from six counties of Jiangxi province in May of 2011 and 2012. The results showed the prevalence of Lyme spirochetal infection among seven species of wild and peridomestic rodents in Jiangxi. 3 strains isolated from 204 mice were all belonged to Borrelia yangze sp.nov. The study firstly showed the role of rodents in maintaining the pathogen of Lyme disease in the environment from Jiangxi province and there existed at least one genotype of Lyme spirochetes in Jiangxi.
为调查中国东南部江西省啮齿动物中伯氏疏螺旋体狭义种的流行情况,于2011年5月和2012年从江西省6个县采集了204只小鼠,进行了伯氏疏螺旋体菌株分离及基于聚合酶链反应(PCR)的研究。结果显示了江西省7种野生和家栖啮齿动物中莱姆螺旋体感染的流行情况。从204只小鼠中分离出的3株菌株均属于新种扬子疏螺旋体。该研究首次表明了啮齿动物在维持江西省环境中莱姆病病原体方面的作用,且江西省存在至少一种莱姆螺旋体基因型。
