Experimental infection of Rhipicephalus sanguineus with Rickettsia conorii conorii [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2009
Little is known about the relationships between Rickettsia conorii conorii, the agent of Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF), and its main vector, the brown dog tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus [1]. Matsumoto et al. recently reported a high mortality of Rh. sanguineus group ticks infected with R.

Prevalence and Identification of Livestock Tick by Sex Ratio and Host in Tehran Province

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
This study identified tick species infesting livestock and poultry in Tehran Province, revealing a female‐biased sex ratio and sheep as the most infested hosts. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the dominant species. These findings underscore the need for host‐targeted tick control to mitigate disease transmission and economic losses.

Transcriptome of larvae representing the Rhipicephalus sanguineus complex

Molecular and Cellular Probes, 2017
Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato (Ixodida: Ixodidae) is possibly the most widespread tick species worldwide, responsible for transmitting several vector-borne pathogens of medical and veterinary importance. Here, we explore the transcriptome of R. sanguineus s.l. larvae (Putignano strain). We sequenced total RNA from R. sanguineus s.l. larvae.

Bushmeat Consumption and the Risk of Zoonotic Tick‐Borne Pathogen Infections in Ghana: An Increasing Risk to Public Health

Public Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2025.
• Consuming bushmeat comes with the risk of zoonotic tick‐borne pathogen infection. • To protect public health, there is a need for regulations on bushmeat handling and sales, frequent surveillance, and increased education. ABSTRACT Consuming bushmeat is a widely accepted tradition in Ghana and other West African countries, where it is a vital source ...

Quantitative study of Rickettsia massiliae in Rhipicephalus sanguineus organs [PDF]

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2014
Rickettsia massiliae, belonging to the spotted fever group of Rickettsia, is a human pathogen causing a similar course of disease to that caused by R. conorii, the originally recognized etiologic agent of Mediterranean spotted fever. In view of this similarity, we performed an ultrastructural study of R.

Prevalence and Sequence Analysis of Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Diseases in Stray Cats in Istanbul

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Istanbul, the largest metropolis in Türkiye, is home to a notable population of stray cats. While cats enrich the city's culture, they can also transmit various diseases, posing diagnostic challenges for clinicians. This study aimed to detect infections in stray cats using PCR and sequencing to identify Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Bartonella, Hepatozoon ...

The taxonomic status of Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Latreille, 1806)

Veterinary Parasitology, 2015
The brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu stricto, is a species with considerable public health and economic importance. However, the taxonomic status of this species is far from resolved. After more than 110 years of scientific work on R. sanguineus s.s., the situation is that there is no type, no solid description, nor is there a consensus ...
