High Diversity, Prevalence, and Co-infection Rates of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Ticks and Wildlife Hosts in an Urban Area in Romania

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Despite the increasingly recognized eco-epidemiological importance of ticks as vectors for numerous zoonotic pathogens in urban areas, data regarding the pathogen diversity and co-infection rates in ticks and wildlife hosts in urban and peri-urban ...

Effective Methods of Estimation of Pathogen Prevalence in Pooled Ticks

Pathogens, 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.

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

Parasites & 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

Frontiers 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 ...

Systematic Review of Ticks and Tick-Borne Pathogens of Small Ruminants in Pakistan

Pathogens, 2020
Ticks and tick-borne diseases (TTBDis) are a major constraint to the health and production of small ruminants in Pakistan. Despite being the subject of intermittent studies over the past few decades, comprehensive information on the epidemiology and ...

Development of a capture sequencing assay for enhanced detection and genotyping of tick-borne pathogens

Scientific Reports, 2021
Inadequate sensitivity has been the primary limitation for implementing high-throughput sequencing for studies of tick-borne agents. Here we describe the development of TBDCapSeq, a sequencing assay that uses hybridization capture probes that cover the ...

Tick vaccines and the control of tick-borne pathogens

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013
Ticks are obligate hematophagous ectoparasites that transmit a wide variety of pathogens to humans and animals. The incidence of tick-borne diseases has increased worldwide in both humans and domestic animals over the past years resulting in greater ...

Changing geographic ranges of ticks and tick-borne pathogens: drivers, mechanisms and consequences for pathogen diversity.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013
The geographic ranges of ticks and tick-borne pathogens are changing due to global and local environmental (including climatic) changes. In this review we explore current knowledge of the drivers for changes in the ranges of ticks and tick-borne pathogen
