Ticks From Mink and Their Associated Microorganisms in Spain

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Wildlife is an important source of emerging zoonotic agents, including tick‐borne ones. Wild carnivores such as mink are commonly parasitized by ticks, which are vectors and reservoirs of zoonotic diseases. Besides the importance of these arthropods as potential sources of diseases in mink, and the role of these mammals as reservoirs of infectious ...

Target‐based discovery of antagonists of the tick (Rhipicephalus microplus) kinin receptor identifies small molecules that inhibit midgut contractions

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 10, Page 5168-5179, October 2024.
The screen of small molecule analogs identifies new non‐cytotoxic antagonists of the tick kinin receptor with inhibitory myotropic activity on the midgut. Abstract BACKGROUND A GPCR (G protein‐coupled receptor) target‐based approach was applied to identify antagonists of the arthropod‐specific tick kinin receptor. These small molecules were expected to

Metabarcoding using nanopore long‐read sequencing for the unbiased characterization of apicomplexan haemoparasites

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Apicomplexan haemoparasites generate significant morbidity and mortality in humans and other animals, particularly in many low‐to‐middle income countries. Malaria caused by Plasmodium remains responsible for some of the highest numbers of annual deaths of any human pathogen, whilst piroplasmids, such as Babesia and Theileria can have immense ...

Epidemiological and Molecular Characteristics of Piroplasmids and Anaplasma spp. in Tan Sheep, Ningxia, Northwest China

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Piroplasmosis and anaplasmosis are important zoonotic diseases of animal origin, which can be transmitted by ticks to infect animals. However, there is limited information on the infection of piroplasmosis and anaplasmosis in Tan sheep in Ningxia, China.

Epidemiological Risk Factors and Modelling Approaches for Risk Assessment of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Introduction and Spread: Methodological Review and Implications for Risk‐Based Surveillance in Australia

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a vector‐borne infection caused by the poxvirus lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) and is a serious disease of cattle, water buffalo, and banteng. While the disease has never occurred in Australia, it is regarded as a growing threat to the Australian cattle industry as there is on‐going spread of the disease throughout Asia ...

Quercetin as a Promising Antiprotozoan Phytochemical: Current Knowledge and Future Research Avenues

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Despite tremendous advances in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, only few antiparasitic drugs have been developed to date. Protozoan infections such as malaria, leishmaniasis, and trypanosomiasis continue to exact an enormous toll on public health worldwide, underscoring the need to discover novel antiprotozoan drugs. Recently, there

Exploring the Coinfection and Genetic Diversity of Multiple Tick‐Borne Pathogens in Livestock Population of Punjab, Pakistan

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Tick‐borne diseases affecting domestic animals and humans have increased globally in recent years. Pakistan, in particular, faces a significant economic threat from ticks, where two specific species, Rhipicephalus microplus and Hyalomma anatolicum, act as vectors for various pathogens such as piroplasma, Anaplasma, Ehrlichia, and Rickettsia that pose a
