Search for blood or water is influenced by Borrelia burgdorferi in Ixodes ricinus

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
An increasing number of studies suggest that vector-borne parasites are able to alter phenotypic traits in their arthropod vectors so that microorganism transmission is enhanced.

Characterization of B Cell Responses in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss) Affected by Red Mark Syndrome

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 35, September 18, 2025.
This study extensively characterizes the B cell response of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in response to red mark syndrome (RMS). This disease, suspected to be caused by a Midichloria‐like organism (MLO), induces skin lesions in the infected animals, characterized by a massive influx of IgM+ B cells.

Crowdsourcing-based nationwide tick collection reveals the distribution of Ixodes ricinus and I. persulcatus and associated pathogens in Finland [PDF]

, 2017
A national crowdsourcing-based tick collection campaign was organized in 2015 with the objective of producing novel data on tick distribution and tick-borne pathogens in Finland. Nearly 20 000 Ixodes ticks were collected.

Extracellular Vesicles in Arthropods: Biogenesis, Functions, Isolation Methods and Applications

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound nanoparticles secreted by cells that are involved in multiple forms of intercellular communication and show promising potential for biotechnological applications. Arthropod‐derived EV research remains relatively fragmented in contrast to the extensively studied mammalian EV field. In this review,

Seasonal infestation of birds with immature stages of Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes arboricola

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2017
This study assessed the parasitization of cavity-nesting birds and ground-nesting/foraging birds with larvae and nymphs of two Ixodes species, Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes arboricola. Totals of 679 (52.3%) I. ricinus and 619 (47.7%) I. arboricola ticks were collected from 15 species of passerine birds which were caught during the nesting and non-nesting ...

A quantitative evaluation of the extent of fluralaner uptake by ticks (Ixodes ricinus, Ixodes scapularis) in fluralaner (Bravecto TM ) treated vs. untreated dogs using the parameters tick weight and coxal index [PDF]

, 2015
Background Fluralaner is a new antiparasitic drug that was recently introduced as Bravecto TM chewable tablets for the treatment of tick and flea infestations in dogs.

Sympatric occurrence of Ixodes ricinus, Haemaphysalis concinna and Haemaphysalis inermis in a wild fauna reserve

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Wildlife reserves represent confined ecosystems with a high concentration of non-native animal species. The Réserve Zoologique de la Haute Touche, a unique forested environment, houses approximately 50 species, primarily Artiodactyla and Perissodactyla ...

Control of Lyme borreliosis and other Ixodes ricinus-borne diseases

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Lyme borreliosis (LB) and other Ixodes ricinus-borne diseases (TBDs) are diseases that emerge from interactions of humans and domestic animals with infected ticks in nature.

Prevalence and Sequence Analysis of Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Diseases in Stray Cats in Istanbul

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Istanbul, the largest metropolis in Türkiye, is home to a notable population of stray cats. While cats enrich the city's culture, they can also transmit various diseases, posing diagnostic challenges for clinicians. This study aimed to detect infections in stray cats using PCR and sequencing to identify Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Bartonella, Hepatozoon ...

Morphological responses to feeding in ticks (Ixodes ricinus) [PDF]

Zoological Letters, 2018
Ticks can survive long periods without feeding but, when feeding, ingest large quantities of blood, resulting in a more than 100-fold increase of body volume. We study morphological adaptations to changes in opisthosoma volume during feeding in the castor bean tick, Ixodes ricinus.
