First evidence of established populations of the taiga tick Ixodes persulcatus (Acari: Ixodidae) in Sweden [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The tick species Ixodes ricinus and I. persulcatus are of exceptional medical importance in the western and eastern parts, respectively, of the Palaearctic region. In Russia and Finland the range of I. persulcatus has recently increased.

Phylogenetic characterization of tick-borne encephalitis virus from Bornholm, Denmark.

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2019
The Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea has been known as a tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) natural focus for more than 60 years. TBE in humans is diagnosed on a regular basis either in inhabitants or tourists of the island.

A natural barrier: tick‐repellent potential of a spruce‐derived volatile blend against Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1481-1491, February 2026.
Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.

Field samplings of Ixodes ricinus ticks from a tick-borne encephalitis virus micro-focus in Northern Zealand, Denmark.

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2019
In 2008-2009 a tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) micro-focus was detected in Northern Zealand, Denmark. No new cases of TBE with an epidemiological link to Northern Zealand has been reported since. Here we undertook to investigate Ixodes ricinus ticks

Intrathecal Kappa Free Light Chains in Relation to IgM Synthesis and MRZH Reaction in a Mixed Neurological Cohort

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 2, February 2026.
Intrathecal free kappa light chains (FLCK) are increasingly used as markers of central nervous system (CNS) inflammation, yet their relationship to immunoglobulin synthesis beyond IgG remains incompletely understood. In a mixed neurological cohort, we show that intrathecal FLCK synthesis closely parallels markers of intrathecal immune activation ...

Prevalence of tick-borne viruses in Ixodes ricinus assessed by high-throughput real-time PCR

Pathogens and Disease, 2018
Ticks are one of the principal arthropod vectors of human and animal infectious diseases. Whereas the prevalence of tick-borne encephalitis virus in ticks in Europe is well studied, there is less information available on the prevalence of the other tick ...

Hypovirus‐Induced Phosphorylation of CpIre1 Modulates Unfolded Protein Response and Virulence in Cryphonectria parasitica

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Hypovirus‐induced phosphorylation of CpIre1 modulates the endoplasmic reticulum stress response in Cryphonectria parasitica. ABSTRACT The chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica and its hypovirus constitute a valuable model for investigating fungal pathogenesis and cross‐kingdom virus–host interplay.
