Borrelia miyamotoi sensu lato in Père David Deer and Haemaphysalis longicornis Ticks
By sequence analysis of 16S rRNA, flaB, p66, and glpQ, we identified Borrelia miyamotoi in 1 of 4 Père David deer (n = 43) seropositive for Borrelia spp. and 1.2% (3/244) of Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks from Dafeng Elk National Natural Reserve, China.

Japanese Spotted Fever in Eastern China, 2013
We isolated Rickettsia japonica from a febrile patient in Lu’an City, China, in 2013. Subsequently, we found an R. japonica seroprevalence of 54.8% (494/902) in the rural population of Anhui Province and an R.

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors
RNA interference (RNAi) is vital for eukaryotes to defend against virus infection. The C3PO complex takes part in RNAi but its role in regulating viral infection remains unclear. This work finds that insect C3PO facilitates arbovirus replication by degrading precursors of miRNAs, especially miR‐971‐3p.

Distribution of Ticks and Prevalence of Tick‐Borne Pathogens in Multiple Regions of China
Ticks and tick‐borne pathogens pose significant threats to livestock and public health. While tick occurrences have been reported in China, systematic assessments of pathogen risk factors across diverse hosts and regions remain limited. This study investigated tick distribution, prevalence, and associated pathogen infections across seven sampling sites

Ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) threaten livestock productivity and public health worldwide, and climate–land‐use change is expanding vector habitats, elevating tick‐borne disease risk. However, TBP diversity and risk in Hubei Province, central China, remain insufficiently defined within a One Health framework.

Evaluation of the efficacy of afoxolaner against Haemaphysalis longicornis on dogs
A controlled study to assess the acaricidal efficacy of afoxolaner in dogs after a single oral administration was conducted against Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks. The study was characterized by a negative controlled randomized block design and included sixteen beagle dogs of both sexes. Starting two days before treatment, each dog was infested weekly

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Ehrlichia canis Infection
Transmitted by tick vectors, Ehrlichia canis (E. canis) is a Gram‐negative, obligate intracellular bacterium of zoonotic concern that infects both canine and human hosts. Its pathogenesis centers on the targeting of mononuclear phagocytes, where it establishes an intracellular niche by suppressing phagolysosomal fusion and evading immune detection ...

Population genetics reveals how ticks interact with hosts, microbiomes and environments. This review guides researchers in choosing the best tool for the job, weighing cost, resolution, reproducibility and throughput to study tick population structure. Abstract Ticks are ectoparasites of major medical, veterinary and ecological importance, transmitting
