Genetic diversity and expanded epidemic area of novel tick-borne pathogen wetland virus in ticks, wild and domestic animals, and patient in China

Emerging Microbes and Infections
Wetland virus (WELV) is a recently identified segmented orthonairovirus associated with human febrile illness in northeastern China. To elucidate its ecological drivers and transmission patterns, we conducted multi-host surveillance in seven eco-climate ...

Behavioral and Morphological Adaptations of Tortoise Tick Hyalomma aegyptium to Testudo graeca: Evidence for Complex Evolutionary History

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
In this study, we examined the infestation characteristics of the tick species Hyalomma aegyptium on its specific host, the spur‐thighed tortoise Testudo graeca, to investigate the principles of behavioral and morphological adaptation and its ecological consequences.

Studies on the pathogenicity of a nairovirus, Dugbe virus, in normal and immunosuppressed mice

Journal of General Virology, 1990
Susceptibility to lethal infection with the KT281/75 strain of the tick-borne nairovirus, Dugbe virus, was similar in an outbred strain and several inbred strains of mice. For the outbred strain, both neural and extraneural routes of virus inoculation resulted in lethal infection, but susceptibility decreased with age and only intracerebral inoculation

The first clinical case due to AP92 like strain of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever virus and a field survey [PDF]

, 2009
Background Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a fatal infection, but no clinical case due to AP92 strain was reported. We described the first clinical case due to AP92 like CCHFV.

Lymphopenia: An early indicator of Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 8, Page 831-837, August 2025.
Abstract Objectives Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever is a lethal tick‐borne disease characterised by initially nonspecific symptoms. While thrombocytopenia and leucopenia are established diagnostic markers, there is a need for earlier indicators. This study evaluates lymphopenia as a marker for Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever.

Tick Species Infesting Livestock in Three Bioclimatic Areas of Senegal: Bioecology, Prevalence of Tick Infestation, Associated Categorical Factors and Crimean‐Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus Infection

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
Ticks were collected between October 2020 and November 2022, from cattle, goats and sheep in the Sahelian, Sudano‐Sahelian and Sudanian zones, and tested for CCHFV infection. A total of 3632 animals were examined and 35.3% (95% CI: 33.8–36.9) found tick‐infested.
