Disease relevance of Acari

 

Psychiatry related information on Acari

  • We report on the mechanisms, the environmental changes and patient compliance with regard to conventional and new dust and mite avoidance measures to prevent allergic symptoms caused by mite allergens, taking into account both allergen contamination and the developmental success of pyroglyphid Acari [4].
 

High impact information on Acari

  • We have cloned a cDNA encoding a novel antigen from a Sarcoptes scabiei (Acari) cDNA library by immunoscreening with sera from S. scabiei-infected dogs [5].
  • This is the first neuropeptide receptor known from the Acari and the second known in the subfamily of leucokinin-like peptide G-protein-coupled receptors [6].
  • Monooxygenase Activity in Methidathion Resistant and Susceptible Populations of Amblyseius womersleyi (Acari: Phytoseiidae) [7].
  • Multiple Environmental Factor Analysis in Habitats of the Harvest Mite Neotrombicula autumnalis (Acari: Trombiculidae) Suggests Extraordinarily High Euryoecious Biology [8].
  • Data obtained from the Acari Collection IBSP included a total of 381 tick specimens collected on 13 C. thous, 8 C. brachyurus, 3 P. concolor, 10 P. onca, 3 P. cancrivorus, 4 N. nasua, 1 L. pardalis, 1 L. wiedii, 4 H. yagouaroundi, 1 Galictis cuja (lesser grison), and 1 L. longicaudis [9].

Associations of Acari with chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Acari

  • A glutathione S-transferase (GST) was purified from the larval cattle tick, Boophilus microplus (Acari: Ixodidae), by glutathione-affinity chromatography [20].
  • Molecular cloning of a phospholipid-hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase gene from the tick, Boophilus microplus (Acari: Ixodidae) [21].
  • We studied 9 children between 9 and 14 years old who had been diagnosed with exclusive allergic rhinitis and were sensitive to acari [22].
  • Ectoparasites were collected from ospreys (Pandion haliaetus) in four study areas within the Great Lakes basin of Ontario, Canada. Two parasitic mite (Acari) species, Bonnetella fusca and Analloptes sp., were collected from nestlings [23].
  • A new species of Eudusbabekia Jameson, 1971 (Acari: Myobiidae) parasitising Rhinophylla pumilio Peters (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) from Ecuador [24].
