Tick-transmitted thogotovirus gains high virulence by a single MxA escape mutation in the viral nucleoprotein.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
Infections with emerging and re-emerging arboviruses are of increasing concern for global health. Tick-transmitted RNA viruses of the genus Thogotovirus in the Orthomyxoviridae family have considerable zoonotic potential, as indicated by the recent ...

The presence of abandonment: Left to live at the borderland of Lampedusa

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 126, Issue 4, Page 622-634, December 2024.
Abstract Drawing from the extensive literature on the anthropology of borders and border death in and beyond Europe, this article ethnographically explores the processes through which irregular migrants and locals at the borderland of Lampedusa (south of Sicily, Italy) are left to live and die in abandonment.

Phenology and habitat associations of the invasive Asian longhorned tick from Ohio, USA

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 314-324, September 2024.
Asian longhorned tick (ALT) nymphs emerged in June, followed by adults, and concluded with larvae in fall. Potential differences in phenology were identified between Ohio and Eastern Coast US states. ALTs were detected in all habitat types including grassland, forest and edge, but not on wildlife hosts, including small‐ and medium‐sized mammals and ...

Cascading effects of mammal host community composition on tick vector occurrence at the urban human–wildlife interface

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Habitat fragmentation and host community composition are implicated as key drivers of changing tick populations and tick‐borne pathogen dynamics, altering infection risk through coupled socioecological pathways that mediate interactions between tick vectors, vertebrate hosts, and humans.

Inflammation, oxidative stress and gut microbiome perturbation: A narrative review of mechanisms and treatment of the alcohol hangover

open access: yesAlcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 48, Issue 8, Page 1451-1465, August 2024.
The alcohol hangover has long been considered a benign, if irksome, consequence of excessive alcohol intake. In this article, we redefine alcohol hangover symptoms as a manifestation of systemic inflammation that correlates with the underlying degree of damage and suggest that the mechanism for this is related to gut permeability, changes in the ...

Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2024.
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...
