Transcriptome of the synganglion and characterization of the cys-loop ligand-gated ion channel gene family in the tick <i>Ixodes ricinus</i>
2021-12-21
Abstract excerpt
Ticks represent a major health issue for humans and domesticated animals. Assessing the expression patterns of the tick’s central nervous system, known as the synganglion, is an important step in understanding tick physiology and in managing tick-borne diseases. Neuron-specific genes like the cys-loop ligand-gated ion channels (cys-loop LGICs) are important pharmacological targets of acaricides. Here, we carried o...
