Evasins: Biology and Therapeutic Potential of Broad‐Spectrum Chemokine Inhibitors

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 139, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Ticks are haematophagous parasites that rely on uninterrupted bloodmeals for survival and need an effective strategy to suppress the host inflammatory response. Leukocyte recruitment is a chemokine‐mediated hallmark of inflammation, which ticks counteract via anti‐chemokine proteins in their saliva named evasins.

Efficient, Capsule‐Free Nymphal Ixodid Tick Placement for Site‐Specific Attachment to Assess Anti‐Tick Host Behavior and Immune Responses

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Ixodid ticks are among the most widespread and permissive groups of arthropod disease vectors in the world. They transmit various viral, bacterial, protozoan, and even nematode pathogens infective for humans and animals. Ticks are essential to studying pathogen transmission and infection in a new host; however, exposing in vivo models to ticks

Q Fever in Africa: A Systematic Review of Prevalence, Zoonotic Potential and Disease Burden

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Q fever is widespread across Africa, with livestock as the primary source of human infections. Although some prevalence data exist, its economic burden is still lacking. The findings underscore the need for a One Health approach that integrates surveillance, economic assessment and control to reduce the disease burden.
