Universal Tick Vaccines: Candidates and Remaining Challenges

Abstract: Recent advancements in molecular biology, particularly regarding massively parallel sequencing technologies, have enabled scientists to gain more insight into the physiology of ticks. While there has been progress in identifying tick proteins and the pathways they are involved in, the specificities of tick-host interaction at the molecular level are not yet fully understood. Indeed, the development of effective commercial tick vaccines has been slower than expected. While omics studies have pointed to some pot… Show more

“…However, the reasons for these variations in protection have not yet been fully elucidated. Despite these gaps in knowledge, efforts have led to the evaluation of cross-protective and cocktail-based anti-tick vaccine approaches that could enhance the immune protection against different tick species in various geographical regions of the world [ 9 , 29 ]. In the present study, recombinant SUB, P0 and FER2 proteins from R. microplus or H. anatolicum were used as vaccine antigens against R. sanguineus s.l.…”

“…Moreover, the use of these antigens in cross-protective and/or cocktail-based anti-tick vaccine trials against R. sanguineus s.l. infestation could facilitate the development of improved anti-tick vaccines [ 29 ]. The aim of the present study was to analyze the R. microplus -derived SUB and Hyalomma anatolicum -derived FER2 as mono-antigenic vaccines, as well as R. microplus -derived P0 protein in combination with SUB and FER2 as a cocktail vaccine (SUB+FER2+P0) to protect rabbits against R. sanguineus s.l.…”
