Identification and comparative analysis of subolesin/akirin ortholog from Ornithodoros turicata ticks

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Subolesin is an evolutionary conserved molecule in diverse arthropod species that play an important role in the regulation of genes involved in immune responses, blood digestion, reproduction and development.

Development of microsatellite markers for the soft tick Ornithodoros phacochoerus

open access: yesParasites & Vectors
Abstract Background Soft ticks of the genus Ornithodoros are responsible for the maintenance and transmission of the African swine fever (ASF) virus in the sylvatic and domestic viral cycles in Southern Africa. They are also the main vectors of the Borrelia species causing relapsing fevers.

Francisella-like endosymbionts of ticks

open access: yes, 2000
Ticks affect human and animal health both directly by their blood feeding and indirectly by transmission of many disease-causing bacteria, such as Rickettsia, Ehrlichia, Borrelia, Coxiella, Cowdria, Anaplasma, Aegyptionella, and Tularemia, as well as ...

Multicolor and Attenuated Light Intensity Responses in Protein Hydrogels Arising from Photoregulated Crosslink Dynamics

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A fully protein‐based hydrogel integrated two orthogonal photoreceptors to enable reversible manipulation of stiffness with red/far‐red light and irreversible gel‐sol transitions with green light. Unexpectedly, high‐intensity red light results in attenuated stiffening and dark‐adaptation, arising from increased crosslinking dynamics in the ...

Ticks in Australia: endemics; exotics; which ticks bite humans?

open access: yes, 2018
At least 71 species of ticks occur in Australia; a further 33 or so species are endemic to its neighbours, New Guinea and New Zealand. The ticks of Australia and other parts of Australasia are phylogenetically distinct.

Detection of ASFV VP72 gene in soft ticks by real time PCR.

open access: yes, 2019
ASFV infection was tested in soft ticks for the following viral strain associations: O. moubata-Liv13/33 (OmL), O. moubata-Georgia2007/1 (OmG), O. erraticus-OurT88/1 (OeO), O. erraticus-Georgia2007/1 (OeG) and O. verrucosus-Urk12/Zapo (OvZ).

PEG Alternatives in Liposomal Nanocarriers: Physicochemical Characteristics and Sustainable Process Strategies

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global trend toward sustainable and intensified bioprocesses is driving innovation in the design and scalable synthesis of liposomal nanocarriers, a cornerstone of modern drug delivery. For decades, these nanosystems have relied exclusively on polyethylene glycol (PEG) for their sustained circulation in vivo, but they are currently ...

Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis Using Knotless All‐Suture Anchor Fixation With Suture Tape: A Modified Technique for Augmenting Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Lateral extra‐articular tenodesis has emerged as a valuable adjunct to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction for mitigating residual rotational instability. We describe a modified lateral extra‐articular tenodesis technique utilizing an all‐suture knotless anchor with suture tape, which provides strong, flexible fixation with reduced soft ...

Open Intrameniscal Examination and Reduction of Depressed Tibial Plateau Fracture

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract In the Schatzker classification, approximately 60.5% of tibial fractures can potentially involve depression fractures of the plateau, on average in types II, III, and IV, and are particularly prevalent among the elderly population. A significant challenge in managing these fractures is achieving optimal visualization of the depressed fracture ...

Impact of life stage-dependent dispersal on the colonization dynamics of host patches by ticks and tick-borne infectious agents

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background When colonization and gene flow depend on host-mediated dispersal, a key factor affecting vector dispersal potential is the time spent on the host for the blood meal, a characteristic that can vary strongly among life history stages. Using a 2-
