The Lyme disease spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi, is ingested rapidly by mouse macrophages in vitro. Spirochetes attach by their ends and become progressively coiled as they move deeper into cells. From the earliest measurements, spirochetes colocalize with a marker of endosomes and lysosomes, and degradation of spirochetes occurs within lysosomes.
莱姆病螺旋体,伯氏疏螺旋体,在体外能被小鼠巨噬细胞迅速摄取。螺旋体通过其末端附着,并在深入细胞的过程中逐渐盘绕。从最早的测量结果来看,螺旋体与内体和溶酶体的标志物共定位,并且螺旋体在溶酶体内发生降解。
