The Lyme Disease agent co-opts adiponectin receptor-mediated signaling in its arthropod vector

2021-09-15

Abstract excerpt

Adiponectin-mediated pathways contribute to mammalian homeostasis; however, little is known about adiponectin and adiponectin receptor signaling in arthropods. In this study, we demonstrate that Ixodes scapularis ticks have an adiponectin receptor-like protein (ISARL) but lack adiponectin – suggesting activation by alternative pathways. ISARL expression is significantly upregulated in the tick gut after Borreli...
