Carryover Effects of Thermal Conditions on Tick Survival, Behavior, and Simulated Detectability

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Recent thermal history affects the abundance and behavior of adult Amblyomma americanum. Thermal responses impacted simulated tick detection through combined effects on movement and mortality. ABSTRACT Carryover effects occur when environmental history of an organism influences its behavior, fitness, and population dynamics.

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 ...

How do parasites and predators choose their victim? A trade‐off between quality and vulnerability across antagonistic interactions

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 2099-2115, October 2025.
ABSTRACT From blood‐sucking lice and food‐stealing gulls to pandemic‐inducing viruses and egg‐eating snakes: parasites and predators are ubiquitous in shaping ecology and evolution. Fundamental to these interactions is the way in which parasites and predators choose their victim. Here, I argue that a trade‐off between host quality and vulnerability can

Tissue-specific signatures in the transcriptional response to Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection of Ixodes scapularis and Ixodes ricinus tick cell lines

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
Anaplasma phagocytophilum are transmitted by Ixodes spp. ticks and have become one of the most common and relevant tick-borne pathogens due to their impact on human and animal health.

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.

Ixodes ricinus tick lipocalins: identification, cloning, phylogenetic analysis and biochemical characterization. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
BACKGROUND: During their blood meal, ticks secrete a wide variety of proteins that interfere with their host's defense mechanisms. Among these proteins, lipocalins play a major role in the modulation of the inflammatory response.

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,
