Variations in Ixodes ricinus Density and Borrelia Infections Associated with Cattle Introduced into a Woodland in The Netherlands [PDF]

, 2008
The effect of introduced large herbivores on the abundance of Ixodes ricinus ticks and their Borrelia infections was studied in a natural woodland in The Netherlands. Oak and pine plots, either ungrazed or grazed by cattle, were selected.

Modeling the effects of variable feeding patterns of larval ticks on the transmission of Borrelia lusitaniae and Borrelia afzelii [PDF]

, 2017
Spirochetes belonging to the Borrelia burgdoferi sensu lato (sl) group cause Lyme Borreliosis (LB), which is the most commonly reported vector-borne zoonosis in Europe. B. burgdorferi sl is maintained in nature in a complex cycle involving Ixodes ricinus

Studying the Circulation of Etiological Agent of Lyme Borreliosis in Stavropol Region

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2008
Using polymerase chain reaction with reverse transcription (RT-PCR) rRNA tick-borne borreliosis (Lyme borreliosis) etiological agent was detected in suspensions of ticks Ixodes ricinus. Infection rate was 7.1 %.

Threat of attacks of Ixodes ricinus ticks (Ixodida: Ixodidae) and Lyme borreliosis within urban heat islands in south-western Poland [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: The increased incidence of Lyme disease in Europe necessitates permanent monitoring of the occurrence and activity of its vector. Therefore, in this study, we have investigated the presence and seasonal activity of Ixodes ricinus ticks in ...

Ethiology and Immunopathogenesis Peculiarities of Ixodic Tick-Borne Borreliosis

Problems of Particularly Dangerous Infections, 2009
The characteristics of tick-borne borreliosis agents and borrelia reservoir hosts and vectors are presented in the article. Considered is participation of ticks' saliva components and superficial spirochete antigens in the mechanisms of mammals infectioning with borrelia. Immunopathogenesis of tick-borne borreliosis is described.

The paradox of the binomial Ixodes ricinus activity and the observed unimodal Lyme borreliosis season in Hungary [PDF]

, 2013
The change of ambient temperature plays a key role in determining the run of the annual Lyme season. Our aim was to explain the apparent contradiction between the annual unimodal Lyme borreliosis incidence and the bimodal Ixodes ricinus tick activity ...

Mechanisms of Immune and Cytokine Regulation in Pathogenesis of Ixodes Tick-Borne Borreliosis

Annals of the Russian academy of medical sciences, 2014
Our aim was to identify the mechanisms of immune and cytokine regulation in different clinical forms of Ixodes tick-borne borreliosis.The clinical observations performed on 581 patients with erythemic (113 patients), non-eritemic (242 patients) forms of Ixodes tick- borne borreliosis and Borrelia co-infection tick-borne encephalitis (226 patients) in ...

Vaccination against Bm86 Homologues in Rabbits Does Not Impair Ixodes ricinus Feeding or Oviposition. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Human tick-borne diseases that are transmitted by Ixodes ricinus, such as Lyme borreliosis and tick borne encephalitis, are on the rise in Europe. Diminishing I. ricinus populations in nature can reduce tick exposure to humans, and one way to do so is by
