Emerging Tick-Borne Bacterial Pathogens

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2016
ABSTRACT A vast number of novel tick-related microorganisms and tick-borne disease agents have been identified in the past 20 years, and more are being described due to several factors, from the curiosity of clinicians faced with unusual clinical syndromes to new tools used by microbiologists and entomologists.

Transport of Ixodid ticks and tick-borne pathogens by migratory birds.

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013
Birds, particularly passerines, can be parasitized by Ixodid ticks, which may be infected with tick-borne pathogens, like Borrelia spp., Babesia spp., Anaplasma, Rickettsia/Coxiella, and tick-borne encephalitis virus.

Investigation of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Ixodes ricinus in a Peri-Urban Park in Lombardy (Italy) Reveals the Presence of Emerging Pathogens

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Ticks are important vectors of a great range of pathogens of medical and veterinary importance. Lately, the spread of known tick-borne pathogens has been expanding, and novel ones have been identified as (re)emerging health threats.

Induced Transient Immune Tolerance in Ticks and Vertebrate Host: A Keystone of Tick-Borne Diseases?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Ticks and tick transmitted infectious agents are increasing global public health threats due to increasing abundance, expanding geographic ranges of vectors and pathogens, and emerging tick-borne infectious agents.

Deviant Behavior: Tick-Borne Pathogens and Inflammasome Signaling [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2016
In the face of an assault, host cells mount an immediate response orchestrated by innate immunity. Two of the best described innate immune signaling networks are the Toll- and the Nod-like receptor pathways. Extensive work has been done characterizing both signaling cascades with several recent advances on the forefront of inflammasome biology. In this

A bite so sweet: the glycobiology interface of tick-host-pathogen interactions

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Vector-borne diseases constitute 17% of all infectious diseases in the world; among the blood-feeding arthropods, ticks transmit the highest number of pathogens. Understanding the interactions between the tick vector, the mammalian host and the pathogens

Meta-transcriptomics for the diversity of tick-borne virus in Nujiang, Yunnan Province

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Ticks, an arthropod known for transmitting various pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi, pose a perpetual public health concern. A total of 2,570 ticks collected from Nujiang Prefecture in Yunnan Province between 2017 and 2022 were included in ...

Tick-borne Pathogens in Northwestern California, USA

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
To the Editor: In northwestern California, USA, the western black-legged tick, Ixodes pacificus, is a known vector of Borrelia burgdorferi, the spirochete that causes Lyme disease. B. miyamotoi, which is more closely related to spirochetes that cause relapsing fever, has also been detected in 2 locations in California (1,2) and has recently been ...

Effective Methods of Estimation of Pathogen Prevalence in Pooled Ticks

open access: yesPathogens, 2023
Since tick-borne diseases (TBDs) incidence, both in human and animal populations, is increasing worldwide, there is the need to assess the presence, distribution and prevalence of tick-borne pathogens.
