ABSTRACT Tick saliva is known to cause immunosuppression and help pathogen transmission. Amblyomma sculptum is a public health concern as a vector of Rickettsia rickettsii. Another close‐related species is Amblyomma cajennense sensu stricto (s.s.). The impact of saliva from these species on murine macrophages remains unclear.

Conjunctival Lesion in a 9‐Year‐Old Boy
Conjunctival lesion in the inner canthus. ABSTRACT Conjunctival pseudolymphoma is a rare benign lymphoid proliferation that can mimic malignant lymphoma, especially in pediatric patients. Thorough histopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular evaluation is essential for correct diagnosis and management, avoiding overtreatment.

Tick-Borne Pathogens in Ticks Collected from Wild Ungulates in North-Eastern Poland
This study was carried out in north-eastern Poland during two hunting seasons between 2018 and 2020. Ticks (Ixodes ricinus and Dermacentor reticulatus) were removed from wild cervids and boars and examined for the presence of Borrelia spirochetes and ...

Molecular Identification of Borrelia spp. from Ticks in Pastures Nearby Livestock Farms in Korea
Ticks are vectors that spread pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. As the number of ticks increases due to climate change, the importance of the study of tick-borne pathogens has also increased.

This study investigates the plasmonic properties and biosensing capabilities of a nanocomposite incorporating Cu and Ag nanoparticles for detecting anti‐DbpA antibodies associated with Lyme disease. The enhanced LSPR response is explained through FDTD simulations of Cu–Ag near‐field interactions and increased surface roughness.

Navigating infection by pathogenic spirochetes: The host‐bacteria interface at the atomic level
Abstract Pathogenic spirochetes bind and interact with various host structures and molecules throughout the course of infection. By utilizing their outer surface molecules, spirochetes can effectively modulate their dissemination, interact with immune system regulators, and select specific destination niches within the host.
