Heterologous Surface Display Reveals Conserved Complement Inhibition and Functional Diversification of Borrelia burgdorferi Elp Proteins
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 124, Issue 1, Page 77-90, July 2025.A novel approach using the Pseudomonas syringae ice nucleation protein (INP) system to present Borrelia burgdorferi lipoproteins on the surface of Escherichia coli reveals conservation of complement inhibitory functions among uncharacterized OspE/F‐like leader peptide (Elp) proteins.Nathan Hill, Lara M.

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 3, Page 313-323, May 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction
Humans acquire tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) from infected ticks contacted during outdoor activities. Outdoor activity is at its highest in urban green spaces, where the presence of tick populations has increasingly been observed. Consequently, more insight into factors influencing the presence of ticks therein is needed.Jani J. Sormunen, Satu Kylänpää, Ella Sippola, Riikka Elo, Nosheen Kiran, Veli‐Matti Pakanen, Eva R.

, 2017 The vector competence of 2 tick species, Ixodes ricinus (L.) and Ixodes scapularis Say, was determined and compared for 3 genospecies of Borrelia burgdorferi. The 3 genospecies of B. burgdorferi used in the following experiments were Borrelia burgdorferi Brossard, Michel, Dolan, Marc C., Golde, William T., Maupin, Gary O., Mbow, M.

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2025.Spillback is potentially an important mechanism by which non‐natives contribute to zoonotic disease emergence. We capitalise on quasi‐experimental releases of non‐native pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) to compare native pathogen prevalence between sites with similar local conditions but different non‐native densities.

The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.Emmanuelle Gilot‐Fromont, Isabelle Villena, Elsa Bonnaud, Claude Fischer, Etienne Giraud, Annick Linden, François Meurens, Carine Paraud, Francis Raoul, Céline Richomme, Sandrine Ruette, Michel Trommetter, Isabelle Vallée, Gilles Meyer, Xavier Bailly, Catherine Belloc, Stéphane Bertagnoli, Alain Boissy, Séverine Boullier, Henri‐Jean Boulouis, Eric Cardinale, Aurélie Courcoul, Alice De Boyer Des Roches, Barbara Dufour, Veasna Duong, Lionel Grisot, Claire Guinat, Nadia Haddad, Elsa Jourdain, Hervé Juin, Sophie Le Bouquin‐Le Neveu, Caroline Le Maréchal, Sophie Le Poder, Yves Millemann, Pierre Mormède, Carole Peroz, Claire Ponsart, Claude Saegerman, Jean‐François Valarcher, Isabelle Vallée, Agnès Waret‐Szkuta, Natacha Woronoff‐Rehn, Laura Maxim, Louis‐Georges Soler, Bénédicte Apouey, Luc Baumstark, Céline Bonnet, Thierry Brunelle, France Caillavet, Alain Carpentier, Thomas Coutrot, Cécile Detang‐Dessendre, Serge Garcia, Julien Gauthey, Emmanuelle Lavaine, Christine Le Clainche, Marc Leandri, Youenn Loheac, Sélim Louafi, Eric Plottu, Elodie Rouviere, Maïder Saint‐Jean, Denis Salles, Léa Tardieu, Jean‐Christophe Vergnaud, Philippe Fravalo, Frédéric Auvray, Mickaël Boni, Frédéric Borges, Gilles Bornert, Frédéric Carlin, Catherine Chubilleau, Monika Coton, Georges Daube, Noémie Desriac, Florence Dubois‐Brissonnet, Michel Federighi, Michel Gautier, Michèle Gourmelon, Sandrine Guillou, Stéphane Guyot, Didier Hilaire, Nathalie Jourdan‐da Silva, Claire Le Henaff‐Le Marrec, Sandra Martin‐Latil, Jeanne‐Marie Membré, Eric Oswald, Nadia Oulahal, Pascal Piveteau, Sabine Schorr‐Galindo, Régine Talon, Isabelle Villena, Emmanuelle Robardet, Nathalie Arnich, Karine Fiore, Florence Etoré, Véronique Raimond, Catherine Collignon +97 morewiley +1 more sourceZoonotic Tick‐Borne Pathogens in Ixodes ricinus Complex (Acari: Ixodidae) From Urban and Peri‐Urban Areas of Kosovo
Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 2, Page 174-183, March 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction
Ixodes ricinus, the castor bean tick, is the most prevalent tick species in Europe. It favours habitats such as shrubs, deciduous and mixed forests, but can also be found in urban environments. Due to its high vector competence, it is of enormous veterinary as well as medical importance, transmitting tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE ...Ina Hoxha, Betim Xhekaj, Genc Halimi, Michiel Wijnveld, Margarida Ruivo, Driton Çaushi, Albana Matoshi, Adelheid G.
