Early Tick Species Identification Using Eschar‐Based PCR to Guide Presymptomatic Risk Assessment in Tick‐Borne Diseases

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In endemic regions where simultaneous larval tick bites frequently occur, early identification of tick species from eschar lesions may substantially influence presymptomatic clinical triage. We report a 78‐year‐old woman who was found after approximately 24 h of wandering, presenting with multiple clustered eschars on the lower extremities and

Langat Virus Biology and Infection

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flaviviruses pose a major threat to global health and can cause severe disease in animals and humans. Among them, tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) and related members of the tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE) serocomplex are transmitted primarily by ticks and can lead to neurological disease, including encephalitis and death. Despite many years

Spotted fever group rickettsiae (SFGR) detection in ticks following reported human case of Japanese spotted fever in Niigata Prefecture, Japan

Scientific Reports, 2021
Japanese spotted fever, a tick-borne disease caused by Rickettsia japonica, was firstly described in southwestern Japan. There was a suspicion of Rickettsia japonica infected ticks reaching the non-endemic Niigata Prefecture after a confirmed case of ...

A humanized NOG‐EXL mouse model for producing severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus–reactive human antibodies

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 378-388, February 2026.
Humanized mouse models are essential for studying human immune response and antibody development. However, conventional models exhibit limited B cell maturation and antigen‐specific humoral responses. To overcome these limitations, we used the NOG‐EXL mice expressing human interleukin 3 (IL‐3) and granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM ...

Autophagy-related genes from a tick,Haemaphysalis longicornis [PDF]

Autophagy, 2008
Ticks are gorging-fasting organisms;(1) their life cycle is characterized by alternate off-host (starvation) and on-host (meal) conditions. Their generation time is estimated in several years and many ticks spend more than 95% of their life off the host. They seem to have a unique strategy to endure the off-host state for a long period.

Seasonality, Moisture, and Host Community Structure of Haemaphysalis Ticks in a Subtropical Urban Mosaic in Hong Kong, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We integrated field surveys, DNA barcoding and integrative taxonomy, iDNA, and ecological modeling to resolve the distributions, seasonality, and host use of Haemaphysalis ticks across Hong Kong. Moisture was indicative of adult activity, and iDNA suggested predominant feeding on wild mammals, particularly wild boar and porcupine.

Investigation of tick-borne bacterial microorganisms in Haemaphysalis ticks from Hebei, Shandong, and Qinghai provinces, China

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Tick-borne microorganisms in many tick species and many areas of China are still not thoroughly investigated. In this study, 224 ticks including two species (Haemaphysalis longicornis and Haemaphysalis qinghaiensis) were collected from four cities in ...
