The ultimate goal of vector vaccines is the control of vector infestations while reducing
pathogen infection and transmission to protect against the many diseases caused by vector …

Tick subolesin was shown in immunization trials using the recombinant protein to protect
hosts against tick infestations. In this study, we demonstrated that subolesin vaccination and …

Subolesin was recently shown in vaccine and RNA interference (RNAi) studies to protect
against tick infestations and to affect tick feeding, reproduction, and development as well as …

Subolesin was recently shown by both gene silencing and immunization with the
recombinant protein to protect against tick infestations, and to cause reduced tick survival …

Tick-borne pathogens cause diseases that greatly impact animal health and production
worldwide. The ultimate goal of tick vaccines is to protect against tick-borne diseases …

Background Despite the use of chemical acaricides, tick infestations continue to affect
animal health and production worldwide. Tick vaccines have been proposed as a cost …

Background Ticks can transmit numerous tick-borne pathogens and cause a huge economic
loss to the livestock industry. Tick vaccines can contribute to the prevention of tick-borne …

Abstract Background Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) are vectors of pathogens worldwide that cause
diseases in humans and animals. Ticks and pathogens have co-evolved molecular …

Subolesin/akirin is a well characterized protective antigen highly conserved across vector
species and thus potentially useful for the development of a broad-spectrum vaccine for the …

Diseases caused by arthropod-borne pathogens greatly impact on human and animal
health. Recent research has provided evidence that tick protective antigens can be used for …
