Meteorological indicators for Amblyomma cajennense and population dynamics in the Tamaulipan Biotic Province in Texas [PDF]
We studied the population dynamics of free-living ticks in the Tamaulipan Biotic Province in south Texas from March, 2005 to November, 2008. We collected 70,873 ticks using carbon dioxide traps. Amblyomma cajennense represented 93.6% of the ticks identified. A.

Virome analyses of Amblyomma cajennense and Rhipicephalus microplus ticks collected in Colombia. [PDF]
Tick-borne viruses (TBV) have gained public health relevance in recent years due to the recognition of human-associated fatal cases and the increase in tick-borne disease and transmission. However, many tick species have not been studied for their potential to transmit pathogenic viruses, especially those found in Latin America.

A new Factor Xa inhibitor from Amblyomma cajennense with a unique domain composition
Bioactive compounds of great interest are found in the saliva of hematophagous organisms. While exploring a cDNA library derived from the salivary glands of the tick Amblyomma cajennense, a transcript that codes for a protein with unique structure (containing an N-terminal Kunitz-type domain and a C-terminus with no homology to any annotated sequences)

Controle estratégico do carrapato Amblyomma cajennense em eqüinos [PDF]
Avaliou-se quantitativamente as infestações por adultos de Amblyomma cajennense em eqüinos mantidos sob infestações naturais em uma pastagem (pastagem 1), antes e após o uso de tratamentos carrapaticidas. Os tratamentos foram aplicados nos eqüinos a cada sete dias durante os períodos de predomínio das larvas e ninfas do carrapato, no Estado de São ...

Inhibition of the classical pathway of the complement system by saliva of Amblyomma cajennense (Acari: Ixodidae). [PDF]
Inhibition of the complement system during and after haematophagy is of utmost importance for tick success in feeding and tick development. The role of such inhibition is to minimise damage to the intestinal epithelium as well as avoiding inflammation and opsonisation of salivary molecules at the bite site.

The baseline susceptibility of Haemaphysalis longicornis to organophosphate, carbamate and pyrethroid acaricides was calculated using a larval package approach. Results indicate that the Asian longhorned tick is susceptible to pyrethroids, coumaphos and carbamates, and should also be effective for controlling H. longicornis.
