Background Tick hemolymph bathes internal organs, acts as an exchange medium for
nutrients and cellular metabolites, and offers protection against pathogens. Hemolymph is …

Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a heterogeneous group of cell-derived
membranous structures that are important mediators of intercellular communication …

In insects, the cytochrome P450 CYP6B family plays key roles in the detoxification of toxic
plant substances. However, the function of CYP6 family genes in degrading plant toxicants …

Insect cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP) plays a key role in the detoxification of
insecticides. In this study, four cDNA sequences of CYP6 genes were identified and …

Bark beetles rely on detoxifying enzymes to resist the defensive terpenoids of the host tree.
Insect cytochrome P450 (CYPs) plays a key role in the detoxification of pesticides and plant …

Ticks are hematophagous ectoparasites that infest a diverse number of vertebrate hosts. The
tick immunobiology plays a significant role in establishing and transmitting many pathogens …

Rickettsia parkeri is a pathogen of public health concern and transmitted by the Gulf Coast
tick, Amblyomma maculatum. Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular bacteria that enter and …

BACKGROUND The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) belongs to the bHLH‐PAS (basic
Helix–Loop–Helix–Period/ARNT/Single minded) family of transcription factors. AhR is a …

Ticks are blood-feeding arachnids that are known to transmit various pathogenic
microorganisms to their hosts. During blood feeding, ticks activate their metabolism and …

Omics sciences and new technologies to sequence full genomes provide valuable data that
are revealed only after detailed bioinformatic analysis is performed. In this work, we …
