Antibodies against OspA epitopes of Borrelia burgdorferi
cross-react with neural tissue.

Neurological sequela of chronic Lyme disease include
encephalopathy, myelopathy and peripheral neuropathy. These have
generally been attributed to either persistent infection or
pathogen-induced autoimmunity. In this study, we investigated the
presence of cross-reactive human neural epitopes that share amino acid
sequences with Borrelia burgdorferi OspA protein. Sequence similarity
analysis was carried out by searching known cDNA sequences from brain
tissue. The cDNA database search yielded three sequences that were
identical to sequences in OspA. Corresponding peptides were synthesized
and antibodies were generated against them in rabbits. Antibodies
against two of the homologous OspA peptides were found to react with
neurons in human brain, spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia by
immunohistochemistry.

Yes, and Norman Latov said it before that.

As did Brown University.

Benache said years ago that antiganglioside antibodies to
Bb go after the nodes of Ranvier, and Lenny the weasel
said anti Bb 41 goes after Human Heat Shock protein 60.

While they simultaneously say we're crazy to say we have
such a disease.
