Allergenomics of the tick Ixodes ricinus reveal important α-Gal-carrying IgE-binding proteins in red meat allergy

Allergy. European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2019
To the Editor Red meat allergy known as mammalian meat allergy, caused by IgE antibodies against galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (α‐Gal), is nowadays recognized worldwide, and strong associations with tick bites have been identified for different tick species ...

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Predicting Novel Tick Vectors of Zoonotic Disease [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
With the resurgence of tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease and the emergence of new pathogens such as Powassan virus, understanding what distinguishes vector from non-vector species, and predicting undiscovered tick vectors is an important step towards mitigating human disease risk.

Occupancy, spatial variance, and the abundance of species [PDF]

, 2003
A notable and consistent ecological observation known for a long time is that spatial variance in the abundance of a species increases with its mean abundance and that this relationship typically conforms well to a simple power law (Taylor 1961 ...

A three-years assessment of Ixodes ricinus-borne pathogens in a French peri-urban forest

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Ixodes ricinus is the predominant tick species in Europe and the primary pathogen vector for both humans and animals. These ticks are frequently involved in the transmission of Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato), the causative agents of Lyme borreliosis ...

Investigation of the Blood Microbiome in Horses With Fever of Unknown Origin

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Fever of unknown origin (FUO) without a respiratory component is a frequent clinical presentation in horses. Multiple pathogens, both tick‐borne and enteric, can be involved as etiologic agents. An additional potential mechanism is intestinal barrier dysfunction.

Larvae of the Ixodes ricinus complex of species

Parasitology, 1970
SUMMARYAn account is given of the morphological characteristics of larvae of four species of the Ixodes ricinus complex, namely I. ricinus, I. persulcatus, I. pacificus and I. nipponensis. Particular reference is made to chaetotaxy and its importance in differentiating larvae of closely related species is emphasized.We are grateful to Dr G.
