Project description:There are very few studies exploring the genetic diversity of tick-borne encephalitis complex viruses. Most of the viruses have been sequenced using capillary electrophoresis, however, very few viruses have been analyzed using deep sequencing to look at the genotypes in each virus population. In this study, different viruses and strains belonging to the tick-borne encephalitis complex were sequenced and genetic diversity was analyzed. Shannon entropy and single nucleotide variants were used to compare the viruses. Then genetic diversity was compared to the phylogenetic relationship of the viruses.

Project description:There has been an emergence and expansion of tick-borne diseases in Europe, Asia and North America in recent years, including Lyme disease, tick-borne encephalitis, and human anaplasmosis. The primary tick vectors implicated are hard ticks of the Ixodes genera. Although much is known about the host response to these bacterial and viral pathogens, there is limited knowledge of the cellular responses to infection within the tick vector. The bacterium Anaplasma phagocytophilum (A. phagocytophilum), is able to bypass apoptotic processes in ticks, enabling infection to proceed. However, the tick cellular responses to infection with the flaviviruses tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) and louping ill virus (LIV), which cause tick-borne encephalitis and louping ill respectively, are less clear. Infection of an Ixodes ricinus (I. ricinus) tick cell line with the viruses LIV and TBEV, and the bacterium A. phagocytophilum, identified activation of common and distinct cellular pathways. In particular, commonly-upregulated genes included those that modulate apoptotic pathways (HSP70), putative anti-pathogen genes (FKBP and XBL1), and genes that influence the tick innate immune response, including selective activation of toll genes. These data provide an insight into potentially key genes involved in the tick cellular response to viral or bacterial infection.

Project description:Powassan virus (POWV), a vector-borne pathogen transmitted by Ixodes ticks in North America, is the causative agent of Powassan encephalitis. As obligate hematophagous organisms, ticks transmit pathogens like POWV at the tick bite site, specifically during the initial stages of feeding. Tick-feeding and salivary factors modulate the host's immunological responses, facilitating blood feeding and pathogen transmission. However, the mechanisms of immunomodulation during POWV transmission remain inadequately understood. In this study, we investigated the global cutaneous transcriptomic changes associated with tick bites during POWV transmission. We collected skin biopsies from the tick attachment sites at 1-, 3-, and 6-hours post-feeding by POWV-infected and uninfected ticks, followed by RNA sequencing of these samples. Differentially expressed genes were analyzed for pathway enrichment using gene ontology and pathway enrichment analyses. Our findings reveal that tick feeding alone significantly impacts the skin transcriptome within the first 1 to 3 hours of tick attachment. Although early POWV transmission induces minimal changes in the local environment, a pronounced shift toward a proinflammatory state is observed 6 hours post tick attachment, characterized by neutrophil recruitment and interleukin signaling. These transcriptomic data elucidate the dynamic changes at the tick bite site, transitioning from changes that assist blood meal acquisition to a proinflammatory phase that may facilitate viral dissemination.

Project description:Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease, is transmitted to vertebrate hosts by Ixodes ticks. As it moves from tick to host, B. burgdorferi must adapt to survive in a vastly different environment. During the tick bloodmeal, which lasts several days, B. burgdorferi is primed for mammalian infection, growing increasingly virulent as it senses cues from its surroundings in the tick. This conditioning is dependent on key transcriptional regulators; however, the downstream transcriptional changes occurring inside of the tick that promote B. burgdorferi transmission and infection are poorly understood due to technical difficulties in sequencing the B. burgdorferi transcriptome from inside of ticks. We developed a protocol to enrich and sequence B. burgdorferi from inside the tick, and we measured global transcriptional changes occurring in feeding ticks. We identified 192 genes that change expression twofold over the course of the tick bloodmeal, which were predominantly located on the plasmids of the genome. The majority of the upregulated genes encode proteins found at the cell envelope or proteins of unknown function, including 45 upregulated genes encoding outer surface lipoproteins. These genes that increase during feeding are candidates for future functional studies, which can help identify new targets for methods that aim to control the spread of Lyme disease.
