Rickettsia spp. Infecting Lone Star Ticks (Amblyomma americanum) (Acari: Ixodidae) in Monmouth County, New Jersey

Journal of medical entomology, 2020
Tick-borne rickettsiae are undergoing epidemiological changes in the eastern United States while human encounters with lone star ticks (Amblyomma americanum L.) have increased substantially.

Characterization of Glycine Rich Proteins in Amblyomma americanum

The FASEB Journal, 2016
Background The feeding habits of ticks require extended attachment of the tick on the host. This extended interaction with the host's immune system requires the tick to shield itself by modulating the host immune response with the use of multiple families of pharmacologically active compounds.

Red Meat Allergies after Lone Star Tick (Amblyomma americanum) Bites

Southern Medical Journal, 2020
Red meat allergies have followed tick bites on every continent except Antarctica. The sensitizing antigen is galactose-α-1,3-galactose (α-gal), an oligosaccharide constituent of nonprimate blood and meat, acquired by ticks during animal bloodfeeding. Because red meat allergy after tick bites is a worldwide phenomenon, the objectives of this review were

Seasonal Activity and Relative Abundance of Amblyomma americanum in Mississippi

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1996
Ecological investigations of the lone star tick, Amblyomma americanum (L.), were conducted in 3 adjacent 60-m2 plots, located in Noxubee National Wildlife Refuge, Noxubee County, Mississippi. Ticks were collected weekly from July 1992 to July 1993 by flagging randomly selected lanes.

Antigens of Amblyomma americanum Ticks Recognized by Repeatedly Infested Sheep

The Journal of Parasitology, 1991
Sera were taken from 3 sheep that had been infested 5 times with Amblyomma americanum and that exhibited manifestations of humoral depression to homologous antigens and anti-tick resistance. Proteins extracted from the intestine or salivary glands of unfed ticks or salivary glands from partially (3-day) fed ticks were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel ...

The molecular basis of the Amblyomma americanum tick attachment phase

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2007
Towards discovery of molecular signaling cascades that trigger and/or facilitate the tick attachment and formation of its feeding lesion, suppressive subtractive hybridization, high throughput sequencing and validation of differential expression by cDNA dot blot hybridization were performed on Amblyomma americanum ticks that had attained appetence and ...

What's eating you? lone star tick (Amblyomma americanum).

Cutis, 2017
Amblyomma americanum, also known as the lone star tick, is found in much of the eastern United States. Since the mid-20th century, the lone star tick has been implicated in human disease. Today, A americanum remains an important vector for tick-borne illness.

Biosynthesis of salivary prostaglandins in the lone star tick, Amblyomma americanum

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1995
Dopamine-induced saliva from ticks fed [3H]arachidonic acid contained the radiolabelled prostaglandins E2, F2 alpha, D2, and B2, the latter probably derived from PGE2 owing to the alkalinity of tick saliva. Prostaglandin synthetase (PGS) activity in the salivary gland homogenate from the lone star tick, Amblyomma americanum, could not be detected by ...
