Occurrence of < em > Dermacentor reticulatus < /em > in  central-southern Poland, and potential threats to human and animal health
CONCLUSIONS: The results expand the available data on the spread of the ornate dog tick and indicate that, since 2010, this tick species and Rickettsia raoultii transmitted by this tick species have probably been present in this area, which has a strongly transformed agricultural structure and and had previously been regarded as a D. reticulatus-free zone. The presence of the ornate dog tick in urban and suburban habitats in central-southern Poland poses new threats to the health of companion animals and humans associated with the transmission of pathogens by this species.PMID:38549474 | DOI:10.26444/aaem/178401 (Source: A...

It's not all about flagella - sticky invasion by pathogenic spirochetes
Trends Parasitol. 2024 Mar 23:S1471-4922(24)00071-0. doi: 10.1016/j.pt.2024.03.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPathogenic spirochetes cause a range of serious human diseases such as Lyme disease (LD), syphilis, leptospirosis, relapsing fever (RF), and periodontal disease. Motility is a critical virulence factor for spirochetes. From the mechanical perspective of the infection, it has been widely believed that flagella are the sole key players governing the migration and dissemination of these pathogens in the host. Here, we highlight the important contribution of spirochetal surface-exposed adhesive molecules and their ...
