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

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.

Acquired tick resistance in Peromyscus leucopus alters Ixodes scapularis infection [PDF]

Infection and Immunity
Ticks are obligate hematophagous parasites and pathogen vectors responsible for morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ixodes scapularis is a vector for at least seven pathogens relevant to human and animal health, including the Lyme disease microbe ...

mRNA vaccination of rabbits alters the fecundity, but not the attachment, of adult Ixodes scapularis [PDF]

Scientific Reports
19ISP is a nucleoside-modified mRNA-lipid nanoparticle vaccine that targets 19 Ixodes scapularis proteins. We demonstrate that adult I. scapularis have impaired fecundity when allowed to engorge on 19ISP-immunized rabbits.

Bartonella infections are rare in blood-fed Ixodes scapularis and Ixodes pacificus ticks collected from rodents in the United States [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background Ixodes scapularis and Ixodes pacificus are important vectors of multiple pathogens in the United States. However, their role in transmission of Bartonella spp., which are commonly reported in rodents and fleas, has been debated.

Early embryonic development in the tick Ixodes scapularis suggests syncytial organization and cellularization before blastoderm formation [PDF]

EvoDevo
Ixodes ticks are the most important vectors of arthropod-borne diseases in the United States, Canada, and Europe. Ixodes scapularis is the major vector that transmits the causative agent of Lyme disease in the eastern United States and can transmit up to
