Antibodies in the blood that bind to and clear spirochaetes expressing the old VMP do not recognize spirochaetes expressing the new VMP . This results in the characteristic pattern of febrile relapses and remissions.

In 1910, Paul Ehrlich developed the first antibiotic, by changing dyes that selectively stained " Treponema pallidum " the spirochaete that causes syphilis into compounds that selectively killed the pathogen.

Because relapsing fever has such nonspecific clinical manifestations, the disease is likely underreported, thus improved diagnostic tools for relapsing fever spirochaetes are needed to better identify the endemic foci and to ensure proper treatment.

Van Duke Carter, after whom the O . P . D . Laboratory of Sir J . J . H . is named discovered in pathology department the spirochaetes of relapsing fever in blood smears in 1907.

In the RF spirochaete " B . turicatae " ( Bt ), these proteins occur in two sizes, variable small proteins ( Vsp ) around 22 kDa and variable large proteins ( Vlp ) around 37 kDa.

Despite this, there is a strong belief that some kind of Lyme-like spirochaete causes a "'Lyme-like disease "'in Australia and that it is carried by " Ixodes holocyclus ".

In her 1981 work " Symbiosis in Cell Evolution " she argued that eukaryotic cells originated as communities of interacting entities, including endosymbiotic spirochaetes that developed into eukaryotic de novo ", contradicting the idea that they have a symbiotic origin.

Some bacteria, including the Spirochaetes of the genus " Borrelia " are a notable exception to this arrangement . " Borrelia burgdorferi ", the cause of Lyme disease, contains a single linear chromosome and several linear and circular plasmids.

Other eukaryotic organelles may have also evolved through endosymbiosis; it has been proposed that cilia, flagella, centrioles, and microtubules may have originated from a symbiosis between a Spirochaete bacterium and an early eukaryotic cell, but this is not widely accepted among biologists.
