Platelet barins

Platelet-bacterial complexes (thrombocytobarins) are immune complexes that form between platelets and the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease and relapsing fever. They play an important role in protecting the body from infection and in the treatment of disease.

Platelets are blood cells that are involved in blood clotting and protect the body from infections. During Borrelia burgdorferi infection, platelets can become infected with spirochetes and form clot-like structures called thrombocytobarins. These complexes can accumulate in various organs and tissues, such as the spleen, liver and lymph nodes.

In Lyme disease, platelet barines are formed as a result of the Rickenberg-Brusin reaction, which occurs between platelets, spirochetes and antibodies. Antibodies produced by the immune system bind to Borrelia antigens, resulting in the formation of platelet blocks. These complexes play an important role in fighting infection and repairing damaged tissue.

During treatment for Lyme disease, platelet cells can be destroyed with antibiotics or other medications. However, some studies suggest that platelet clots may also contribute to the development of complications such as chronic joint and muscle pain and neurological disorders. Therefore, for effective treatment of Lyme disease, it is necessary to take into account the role of platelet cells in the pathogenesis of the disease.

In addition, platelet proteins may play an important role in the development of other diseases associated with Borrelia infection. For example, in Lyme disease-borreliosis, platelets can cause inflammation and tissue damage, which can lead to arthritis, myalgia, and other symptoms. In this case, treatment should be aimed at destroying both the spirochetes themselves and the thrombocytobars.



Platelets, or platelet proteins, are complex molecules that play an important role in blood circulation and hemostasis. They are formed in the bone marrow and circulate in the blood, where they perform various functions such as blood clotting and blood pressure regulation. However, in certain diseases, such as thrombosis, platelet count can be abnormal and lead to serious consequences.

One of these diseases is tropical treponema (
