Emerging Roles for Immunomodulatory Functions of Free ISG15 [PDF]

, 2013
Type I interferons (IFNs) exert their effects through the induction of hundreds of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), many of which function by inhibiting viral replication and modulating immune responses. ISG15, a di-ubiquitin-like protein, is one of the most

Detection of Multiple Microorganisms in Ruminant Ticks in Senegal Using High‐Throughput Microfluidic Real‐Time PCR

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks are major vectors of numerous pathogens affecting both livestock and humans. In Senegal, data on the diversity of tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) in ruminant‐associated ticks remain limited. In total, 1703 ticks were collected from goats, sheep, and cattle across three ecological zones of Senegal (Sudanian, Sahelian, and Sudano‐Sahelian).

Knowledge, Attitude and Practices of Abattoir Workers in Kumasi Towards Ticks and Tick‐Borne Pathogens

Public Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.
Education significantly influenced risk perception (p = 0.008); overall, 52% of respondents without formal education denied the possibility of human tick‐borne infections, whereas 44% with basic education recognized this risk. Most respondents (81.5%) experienced tick bites.
