Prevalence and Identification of Livestock Tick by Sex Ratio and Host in Tehran Province
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.This study identified tick species infesting livestock and poultry in Tehran Province, revealing a female‐biased sex ratio and sheep as the most infested hosts. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the dominant species. These findings underscore the need for host‐targeted tick control to mitigate disease transmission and economic losses.

Pixelated pathologies: Camera trapping as a tool for monitoring wildlife health
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 2894-2913, November 2025.Given the increasing emergence of diseases, some with conservation and public health implications, improving and expanding wildlife health surveillance strategies is imperative. Camera trapping is particularly relevant for detecting new outbreaks, monitoring high‐risk zones and evaluating risk mitigation measures. Abstract Camera trapping has become an

Extracellular Vesicles in Arthropods: Biogenesis, Functions, Isolation Methods and Applications
Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound nanoparticles secreted by cells that are involved in multiple forms of intercellular communication and show promising potential for biotechnological applications. Arthropod‐derived EV research remains relatively fragmented in contrast to the extensively studied mammalian EV field. In this review,
