Mosquito and tick repellency of two Anthemis essential oils from Saudi Arabia

Saudi Pharmaceutical Journal, 2018
The essential oils (EOs) of Anthemis melampodina (Am) and Anthemis scrobicularis (As) (Asteraceae) were extracted from the aerial parts of the plants by hydrodistillation, and their chemical compositions were analyzed using GC-FID and GC-MS.

Anaphylactic transfusion reaction to group B platelets related to alpha‐gal syndrome: A case report

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS), a distinct form of IgE‐mediated hypersensitivity to the carbohydrate galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (α‐Gal), typically occurs after repeated tick bites and leads to allergic reactions after ingestion of mammalian meat.

Disease Agents inAmblyomma americanumfrom Northeastern Georgia [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2004
Amblyomma americanum (lone star tick) is known or suspected to vector several organisms that are implicated as human pathogens, including Ehrlichia chaffeensis, E. ewingii, and Borrelia lonestari. These three agents have also been detected in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Because northeastern Georgia has a high abundance of both lone star

Amblyomma cajennense Sensu Stricto (Fabricius, 1787) and Amblyomma sculptum (Berlese, 1888) Tick Saliva Elicit Immune‐Modulatory Activity in Isolated Murine Macrophages With an Insight Into Proteomic Analysis

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick saliva is known to cause immunosuppression and help pathogen transmission. Amblyomma sculptum is a public health concern as a vector of Rickettsia rickettsii. Another close‐related species is Amblyomma cajennense sensu stricto (s.s.). The impact of saliva from these species on murine macrophages remains unclear.

IgE to Galactose‐α‐1,3‐Galactose (α‐Gal) and Relevance to Ustekinumab First‐Dose Infusion Reactions and Allergenicity

JGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Ustekinumab, a monoclonal antibody (mAb) used to treat inflammatory bowel disease, has been associated with immediate hypersensitivity reactions during first intravenous infusion. While rare, the mechanism for these reactions is unclear. IgE to the oligosaccharide galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (α‐gal) is a cause of allergy to mammalian meat ...

Isolation, culture, and genome analysis of Rickettsia oklahomensis sp. nov. (Rickettsiales: Rickettsiaceae) from Amblyomma americanum (Acari: Ixodidae)

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
An uncharacterized Rickettsia species was previously identified by molecular detection in Amblyomma americanum ticks from Oklahoma, a state reported to have high Rickettsia seroprevalence.

Molecular Screening of Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) for Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Pathogens, South Moravia, Czech Republic

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 95-106, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Black flies (Simuliidae) are globally distributed blood‐feeding arthropods and vectors of viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens to many animal species, including humans. We investigated the occurrence of selected vector‐borne pathogens in black flies in South Moravia, Czech Republic, and evaluated their possible role in the ...

Discovery of filarial nematode DNA in Amblyomma americanum in Northern Virginia [PDF]

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2016
Ticks collected in 2011 were screened for the presence of filarial nematode genetic material, and positive samples were sequenced for analysis. Monanema-like filarial nematode DNA was recently discovered in Amblyomma americanum in northern Virginia, marking the first time genetic material from this parasite has been discovered in ticks in the state ...
