Two kinds of ferritin protect ixodid ticks from iron overload and consequent oxidative stress.
Ticks are obligate hematophagous parasites that have successfully developed counteractive means against their hosts' immune and hemostatic mechanisms, but their ability to cope with potentially toxic molecules in the blood remains unclear.

The bacterial patterns suggesting the dynamic features of tick-associated microorganisms in hard ticks. [PDF]
Abstract Background Ticks are blood-feeding significant arthropods that can harbour various microorganisms, including pathogens that pose health risks to humans and animals. Tick-symbiont microorganisms are believed to influence tick development, but the intricate interactions between these microbes and the relationships

A transcriptome-based phylogenetic study of hard ticks (Ixodidae) [PDF]
AbstractHard ticks are widely distributed across temperate regions, show strong variation in host associations, and are potential vectors of a diversity of medically important zoonoses, such as Lyme disease. To address unresolved issues with respect to the evolutionary relationships among certain species or genera, we produced novel RNA-Seq data sets ...
