International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Ticks, particularly Ixodes ricinus, are significant vectors of pathogens such as Borrelia spp. and tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), which cause Lyme borreliosis (LB) and tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE), respectively. Understanding how these pathogens interact within the tick microbiome is essential for developing vector control strategies.

Ticks and Tick‐Borne Pathogens Encountered by Dogs and Cats: A North European Perspective
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Climate change is increasing the worldwide burden of tick‐borne diseases (TBDs). Dramatic increases in human cases of borreliosis have been reported during the past few decades, including from Finland, located in North Europe. As human exposure to ticks carrying pathogens is increasing, so likely is exposure of dogs and cats.

New Microbes and New Infections, 2018 The poultry red mite (PRM), Dermanyssus gallinae, is a nonburrowing haematophagous nest-dwelling ectoparasite of birds; occasionally it bites humans, inducing dermatitis.

Experimental & applied acarology, 2019 Green areas located within large cities, as natural ecotypes, are a convenient habitat for ticks and their use as recreational areas is associated with the potential risk of acquiring tick-borne diseases. This study estimated the I. ricinus tick density,

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Tick‐borne spirochetes of the genus Borrelia are maintained in enzootic transmission cycles involving wild vertebrates such as rodents. The genus includes the lyme disease group (LDG), transmitted by hard ticks (Ixodidae), and the relapsing fever group (RFG), mostly transmitted by soft ticks (Argasidae).

Bridging the gap: Insights in the immunopathology of Lyme borreliosis
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 54, Issue 12, December 2024.Lyme borreliosis is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato transmitted by Ixodes ticks. The disease progresses from early localized infection to more severe conditions driven by ongoing inflammation. Understanding the role of Th1/Th2 balance, B‐cell dysfunction, and autoimmunity in Lyme borreliosis pathogenesis could improve diagnosis and treatment ...

Development of a PCR for Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, targeted on the groEL gene
Folia Parasitologica, 2020 Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) is the etiological agent of Lyme disease, transmitted by ticks of the genus Ixodes Latreille. Diagnosis of Lyme disease in humans is often difficult and a detailed knowledge of the circulation of B. burgdorferi s.l. in tick hosts is therefore fundamental to support clinical procedures.
