Ticks found to harbor and release prions of chronic wasting disease<\/h3>\n

By Pooja Toshniwal Paharia, Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM<\/em><\/p>\n

In a recent study published in the\u00a0Scientific Reports<\/a>\u00a0Journal, researchers combined experimental tick feeding with tick evaluations from wild white-tailed deer (Odocoileus<\/em> virginianus<\/em>) to determine whether ticks may contain transmission-relevant amounts of chronic wasting disease (CWD)-associated prions (PrPCWD<\/sup>).<\/p>\n

Background<\/h4>\n

Natural means of the\u00a0spread of CWD among free-roaming cervids have not been extensively\u00a0investigated, and they may prolong the endemic increase and the disease’s vast geographic distribution.<\/p>\n

Because cervids can carry significant tick infestations and exhibit allogrooming, a common tick defense technique between conspecifics, the presence of PrPCWD\u00a0in the blood may constitute a danger for indirect transmission via hematophagous ectoparasites functioning as mechanical vectors. The contribution of ticks as mechanical carriers of CWD\u00a0is unknown.<\/p>\n
