Serpins in the Spotlight: Novel Bioinformatic Insights Into Hyalomma dromedarii Sialotranscriptome

Biochemistry Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ticks pose a significant global threat to human and animal health as vectors of numerous pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Beyond their harmful impact, tick salivary glands contain serine protease inhibitors (serpins) known for their potential pharmaceutical properties.

Electrophoretic and antigenic comparisons of the ixodid ticks Amblyomma maculatum and A. americanum (Acari: Ixodidae)

, 1982
Disc gel electrophoretic patterns of female and male Amblyomma maculatum Koch extracts are similar but not identical. A comparison of combined male-female A. americanum (L.) with male and female A. maculatum extracts suggests that several common proteins

An assessment of equine veterinarian knowledge and perceptions of ticks and tick‐borne diseases in the United States to inform continuing education needs

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 527-535, October 2024.
Summary Background Ticks can harm horses and transmit diseases, making them a growing concern for owners and veterinarians. Veterinarians play a crucial role in providing advice on tick prevention and control. Yet, no research has examined their perspectives on equine ticks and tick‐borne disease (TBD).

Alpha‐Gal, epitope responsible for allergy to red meat, in the Mediterranean tick Hyalomma lusitanicum

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 366-371, September 2024.
The presence of α‐Gal epitope ( was confirmed by the presence of reactive proteins of >250 kDa in samples from engorged and unfed H. lusitanicum ticks. The highest concentrations of α‐Gal were detected in salivary glands. Neither sex nor diet influenced the concentration of α‐Gal, which seems to indicate its endogenous production and its possible ...

Insights from entire mitochondrial genome sequences into the phylogeny of ticks of the genera Haemaphysalis and Archaeocroton with the elevation of the subgenus Alloceraea Schulze, 1919 back to the status of a genus

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 189-204, June 2024.
We sequenced the entire mt genomes of three species of tick for the first time: Bothriocroton auruginans, B. hydrosauri and H. (Kaiseriana) novaeguineae, and we sequenced the 18S rRNA gene of B. hydrosauri and H. (Kaiseriana) bancrofti. In our phylogenetic trees, Alloceraea was the sister to Archaeocroton sphenodonti, from New Zealand; to the exclusion
