Tick acetylcholinesterases mediate the repellent effect of cinnamaldehyde, a primary compound found in cinnamon oil

2023-12-01

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title><p>Background The control and prevention of ticks and tick-borne diseases relies on chemical insecticides and repellents. Plant-derived compounds potentially represent new and safer repellents. Cinnamaldehyde, a component of cinnamon oil, exhibits antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, acaricidal and repellent activity against ticks. Here we studied the molecular mechanism of the repellent effect...
