Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2021 Introduction. Borrelia miyamotoi is a pathogen causing erythema-free ixodid tick-borne borreliosis (ITBB), a disease widespread in Russia. The genome of B. miyamotoi contains genes of multiple variable major proteins (Vmps). Vmps fall into two families —

Preliminary Evaluation of Tick Protein Extracts and Recombinant Ferritin 2 as Anti-tick Vaccines Targeting Ixodes ricinus in Cattle [PDF]
, 2018 Anti-tick vaccines have the potential to be an environmentally friendly and cost-effective option for tick control. In vaccine development, the identification of efficacious antigens forms the major bottleneck. In this study, the efficacy of immunization

Tick‐borne relapsing fever as a potential veterinary medical problem
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 271-279, November 2018., 2018 Tick‐Borne Relapsing Fever is emerging as an important veterinary medical problem. Abstract Tick‐borne relapsing fever (TBRF) caused by the bacteria Borrelia, is poorly documented in veterinary medicine. Given the widespread presence of the soft tick vectors – Ornithodoros and the recently discovered hard tick vectors, as well as their close ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 We evaluated the utility of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (Bb) peptide C6 for serologic confirmation of Ixodid Tick‐Borne Borrelioses (ITBB) in Russia. Serum samples (N = 1089) were from erythema migrans (EM) (N = 327) and the EM‐free (EMF) patients (N = 115); in some patients, the disease was accompanied by human granulocytic anaplasmosis or tick‐

Soluble cysteine‐rich tick saliva proteins Salp15 and Iric‐1 fromE. coli
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 42-55, January 01, 2015., 2015 Tick saliva proteins Salp15 and Iric‐1 promote tick feeding and pathogen transmission. We established the first bacterial expression system for soluble Salp15 and Iric‐1. Using this system we mapped monoclonal antibody epitopes on Salp15 and Iric‐1. We defined the interaction sites with Borrelia outer surface protein C (OspC).

Epidemiology and Vaccinal Prevention, 2019 Background. Ixodid tick-borne borrelioses (ITBB) is the most prevalent in Northern Hemisphere group of transmissible Spirochaetal infections, ecologically connected with Ixodid ticks. ITBB are etiologically associated with several agents, which determine epidemiological and clinical manifestations of these diseases.
