Melting pot of tick-borne zoonoses : the European hedgehog contributes to the maintenance of various tick-borne diseases in natural cycles urban and suburban areas [PDF]
Background: European hedgehogs (Erinaceus europaeus) are urban dwellers and host both Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes hexagonus. These ticks transmit several zoonotic pathogens like Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato), Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Rickettsia ...

Sufficient reproduction numbers to prevent recurrent epidemics
Abstract Current practice in the design and evaluation of control measures in disease ecology and epidemiology, including vaccination, is largely based on reproduction numbers (RNs), which represent prognostic indices of long‐term disease transmission, both in naïve populations (basic RN) and in the presence of prior exposure or infection containment ...

Is Zebrafish a Good Model for the Alpha‐Gal Syndrome?
ABSTRACT The alpha‐Gal syndrome (AGS) is an underdiagnosed tick‐borne allergy characterized by both immediate and delayed IgE‐mediated anaphylactic reactions to the galactose‐alpha‐1,3‐galactose (alpha‐Gal) epitope. Common manifestations include gastrointestinal, cutaneous, and respiratory symptoms appearing 2–6 h after the consumption of mammalian ...

A. phagocytophilum infections have been detected from various rodent hosts and the associated ticks from different sites throughout the globe. Ixodes ticks were the most frequent tick observed in the studies, followed by Dermacentor tick and Haemaphysalis tick species. Apodemus rodent species were frequently observed, followed by Microtus spp.

Deep Sequencing Analysis of the Ixodes ricinus Haemocytome
Ixodes ricinus is the main tick vector of the microbes that cause Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis in Europe. Pathogens transmitted by ticks have to overcome innate immunity barriers present in tick tissues, including midgut, salivary glands epithelia and the hemocoel.
