Antiparasitic Potential of Bioactive Compounds From Punica granatum: Preventive and Therapeutic Effects

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Diseases caused by parasites are a global public health problem. Due to their heterogeneity and diversity, they can affect various hosts, and some diseases are considered zoonotic. Therapeutic control in parasitic diseases has lost its effectiveness over the last decades.

Development of Multiplex Assays for the Identification of Zoonotic Babesia Species

Pathogens
More than one-hundred Babesia species that affect animals and humans have been described, eight of which have been associated with emerging and underdiagnosed zoonoses. Most diagnostic studies in humans have used serology or molecular assays based on the

Sinop Yöresinde Kirsal Kesimde Yaşayan Insanlarda Babesia microti Seroprevalansi.

, 2010
Babesia species are blood parasites which transmitted by ticks and located in erythrocytes. Babesia divergens in Europe and Babesia microti in America are the most significant etiologic agents of human babesiosis cases.

Immunodepression inBabesia microtiinfections

Parasitology, 1977
Infection with the avirulent piroplasmBabesia microtiin mice is accompanied by a marked depression in the ability of the mice to mount an immune response to sheep red blood cells. The period of immunodepression begins 3 days after peak parasitaemia and is maximal 4 days later.

Ecological and Epidemiological Consequences of Tick‐Control Interventions in Residential Neighborhoods: A Synthesis of The Tick Project

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Controlling populations of Ixodes ticks has emerged as a core strategy for reducing human exposure to tick‐borne infections. Several means of reducing the size of the tick population using chemical and biological acaricides show promise in field trials and are frequently used commercially in North America and Europe.

DataSheet_1_A Novel Thioredoxin-Like Protein of Babesia microti Involved in Parasite Pathogenicity.docx

, 2022
Babesiosis poses a serious threat to immunocompromised individuals and the major etiological species of Babesia for human babesiosis is Babesia microti. Merozoites are a critical stage in the life cycle of Babesia microti. Several merozoite proteins have

Ecological dynamics of blacklegged ticks, vertebrate hosts, and associated zoonotic pathogens in northeastern forests

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Specific host‐tick interactions in temperate forest systems influence variation in density and infection prevalence of nymphal blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis). The density of infected nymphs (DIN), which is the product of nymphal infection prevalence (NIP) and density of questing nymphs (DON), influences the risk of human exposure to tick‐

Molecular Survey of Babesia microti (Aconoidasida: Piroplasmida) in Wild Rodents in Turkey [PDF]

, 2019
Babesia microti (Aconoidasida: Piroplasmida) (Franca, 1910) is an important tick-borne zoonotic parasite with rodents serving as reservoir hosts. In the present study, 536 rodents were captured from Burdur, Bartin, Giresun, and Yozgat provinces of Turkey

Co-infections in Persons with Early Lyme Disease, New York, USA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
In certain regions of New York state, USA, Ixodes scapularis ticks can potentially transmit 4 pathogens in addition to Borrelia burgdorferi: Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia microti, Borrelia miyamotoi, and the deer tick virus subtype of Powassan virus.

Rapid Northward Expansion of the Blacklegged Tick, Ixodes scapularis, in Response to Climate Change

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
The blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, can transmit human diseases such as Lyme disease and is exposing new human populations to this risk due to its rapid expansion into Canada. We used community science data (eTick and iNaturalist) to understand the environmental factors responsible for the distribution of I.
