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‐

ABSTRACT miR‐455‐5p and retinoid signaling pathway and its membrane receptor, STRA6, are associated with lung development. Software copredictions indicate that the miRNA upstream of the STRA6 gene is miR‐455‐5p. We hypothesized that miR‐455‐5p participates in rat lung alveolar Type II cell proliferation by targeting STRA6 and designed this study to ...
