Potential mechanisms implied in tick infection by arboviruses and their transmission to vertebrate hosts

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 2, Page 315-330, March 2025.
We summarize the recent progress in understanding defense mechanisms in specific tissues or sites that are encountered by arboviruses and discuss their possible roles in virus infection or transmission. Abstract Ticks can transmit many pathogens, including arboviruses, to their vertebrate hosts.

A seasonal matrix population model for ixodid ticks with complex life histories and limited host availability

open access: yesEcology, Volume 106, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Many vector‐borne diseases are sensitive to changes in land use and climate; hence, it is important to understand the factors that govern the vector populations. Ixodid ticks, which serve as vectors for multiple diseases, have a slow life cycle compared with many of their hosts.

An Emerging Role for Ticks as Vectors of Tularaemia in Sweden

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
Tularaemia is a cause of growing concern, spreading to new areas in Sweden and infecting hares and humans. This study reveal that Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica has been isolated from ticks in Sweden for the first time. The bacterium has been detected in ticks collected from both hare and cat.

Lyme neuroborreliosis in Japan: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato as a cause of meningitis of previously undetermined etiology in hospitalized patients outside of the island of Hokkaido, 2010–2021

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Background and Purpose Clinical manifestations of Lyme borreliosis (LB), caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (Bbsl), include erythema migrans, Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB), carditis, and arthritis. LB is a notifiable disease in Japan with <30 surveillance‐reported LB cases annually, predominately from Hokkaido Prefecture.

Microevolution of tick-borne encephalitis virus in course of host alternation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Two tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus variants were studied: mouse brain-adapted strain EK-328 and its derivate adapted to Hyalomma marginatum ticks.

Serpins in the Spotlight: Novel Bioinformatic Insights Into Hyalomma dromedarii Sialotranscriptome

open access: yesBiochemistry Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ticks pose a significant global threat to human and animal health as vectors of numerous pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Beyond their harmful impact, tick salivary glands contain serine protease inhibitors (serpins) known for their potential pharmaceutical properties.

Impact of co-infections in Lyme disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lyme disease is one of the most frequent tick-borne diseases worldwide, it can be multi-systemic and insidious, in particular when it shows a chronic course.

Differential Impact of Simultaneous or Sequential Coinfections With Borrelia afzelii and Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus on the Ixodes ricinus Microbiota

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ticks, particularly Ixodes ricinus, are significant vectors of pathogens such as Borrelia spp. and tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), which cause Lyme borreliosis (LB) and tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE), respectively. Understanding how these pathogens interact within the tick microbiome is essential for developing vector control strategies.
