The cellular immune response to Borrelia burgdorferi was studied in 24 patients with seropositive and seronegative Lyme borreliosis, 30 patients with arthritides of different origin (non-Lyme arthritides), and 20 normal blood donors. By far, the strongest T cell stimulation was induced by incubation
