1. Serosurvey of Rickettsia spp. in cats from a Brazilian spotted fever-endemic area
Resumo Espécies de Rickettsia têm sido responsáveis por doenças transmitidas por carrapatos no mundo, a maioria mantida por hospedeiros amplificadores, como as capivaras em áreas endêmicas no Brasil. A Universidade de São Paulo, em Piracicaba, no sudeste do Brasil, é uma área endêmica para a Febre Maculosa Brasileira (FMB), com alta densidade de ca

2. Molecular survey of flaviviruses and orthobunyaviruses in Amblyomma spp. ticks collected in Minas Gerais, Brazil
Resumo Alterações ambientais causadas pelo homem têm levado à emergência de doenças transmitidas por vetores no mundo. Carrapatos são vetores conhecidos de vários patógenos de importância médica e veterinária, tendo sido reportado nas últimas décadas um grande número de enfermidades virais emergentes transmitidas por eles (vírus da Febre Hemo

3. Passage of Borrelia burgdorferi through diverse Ixodid hard ticks causes distinct diseases: Lyme borreliosis and Baggio-Yoshinari syndrome
Baggio-Yoshinari syndrome is an emerging, tick-borne, infectious disease recently discovered in Brazil. This syndrome is similar to Lyme disease, which is common in the United States of America, Europe and Asia; however, Brazilian borreliosis diverges from the disease observed in the Northern Hemisphere in its epidemiological, microbiological, laboratory and

4. An update on the epidemiological situation of spotted fever in Brazil
Abstract Background Spotted fever is a tick-borne rickettsial disease. In Brazil, its notification to the Ministry of Health is compulsory. Since 2007, cases of spotted fever have been integrated to the Notifiable Diseases Information System, and epidemiological analyzes are part of the routines on surveillance programs. Methods This descriptive study up

5. Bacteria associated with Amblyomma cajennense tick eggs
Abstract Ticks represent a large group of pathogen vectors that blood feed on a diversity of hosts. In the Americas, the Ixodidae ticks Amblyomma cajennense are responsible for severe impact on livestock and public health. In the present work, we present the isolation and molecular identification of a group of culturable bacteria associated with A. cajennens

6. Approaches towards tick and tick-borne diseases control
Ticks are obligate haematophagous ectoparasites of wild and domestic animals as well as humans, considered to be second worldwide to mosquitoes as vectors of human diseases. Tick-borne diseases are responsible worldwide for great economic losses in terms of mortality and morbidity of livestock animals. This review concerns to the different tick and tick-para

7. Febre maculosa brasileira no estado de São Paulo : aspectos clínicos e epidemiológicos / Brazilian spotted fever in São Paulo State : Clinical and epidemiological aspects
Causada pela bactéria Rickettsia rickettsii e transmitida pelos carrapatos Amblyomma cajennense e Amblyomma aureolatum, a febre maculosa brasileira (FMB), após décadas de aparente silêncio epidemiológico, desde sua reemergência nos anos 80, vem figurando como importante problema de saúde pública no estado de São Paulo, sobretudo, em decorrência da

8. Laboratorial study of tick-borne infectious agents in patients with brazilian Lyme-like disease (Baggio-Yoshinari Syndrome) / Estudo laboratorial de agentes infecciosos transmitidos por carrapatos em pacientes com doença de Lyme-símile brasileira (síndrome Baggio-Yoshinari)
Human Monocytic Ehrlichiosis, Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Lyme Disease (LD) are tick-borne diseases commonly found in the North hemisphere. In Brazil, a LD-like illness called Baggio- Yoshinari Syndrome (BYS) is described, but epidemiological, clinical and laboratorial features are different from the original

9. Biologia do Amblyomma parvum, Aragão 1908 (Acari: Ixodidae) utilizando-se diferentes hospedeiros em condições de laboratório
Ticks are obligatory hematophagous ectoparasites and are thus infectious disease vectors for both humans and animals. To understand the epidemiology of tick-borne infectious diseases it is essential to know the life cycle of ticks. Amblyomma parvum is a Neotropical tick and its life cycle is poorly understood. In this work the biology of A. parvum is describ

10. Imunobiologia das infestações de bovinos pelo carrapato Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus: estudo dos correlatos imunes de resistência e de susceptibilidade / The immunobiology of infestations with the cattle tick Rhipiceplahus (Boophilus) microplus: comparative immunologic and molecular studies of the tick-host interface in susceptible and resistant bovine hosts.
The skin of vertebrates is the largest for over 15,000 species of hematophagous arthropods. Among them are ticks, which are long-term feeders and interact with host defenses for days to weeks. Little is known about specialized strategies for eliminating ectoparasites, but ticks can induce immune responses in host. Bovines present variable and heritable level

11. Perfil sanitário de onças-pintadas (Panthera onca) de vida livre no Pantanal Sul do Mato Grosso do Sul - Brasil / Health profile of free-ranging jaguars (Panthera onca) in Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul State - Brazil
Few studies have been conducted to investigate the health of free-ranging jaguars. In order to obtain better parameters for clinical evaluation of this endangered species, clinical exams, hemogram, biochemical tests and ecological monitoring were done for 10 jaguars in the Pantanal region - Corumbá City, Mato Grosso do Sul State. This project also evaluated

12. Human ehrlichioses in Brazil: first suspect cases
Brazilian spotted fever (BSF) rickettsiosis is the most common and recognized of the human rickettsioses in Brazil. It is difficult to establish the diagnosis of human rickettsiosis infection by routine microbiologic methods, creating a false idea that Rickettsia and Ehrlichia infections are rare and without importance. New tick-borne diseases, like Human Gr
