Вирусные трансмиссивные патогены в клещах из природных биотопов Европейской части России

Целью работы являлось выявление в твердых клещах, собранных в нескольких регионах Европейской части России, вирусов, передающихся трансмиссивно. 

Вирусную РНК клещей рода Ixodes, собранных из природных очагов клещевого энцефалита Астраханской области, Карелии и Ставропольского края, исследовали методом ПЦР и секвенированием полученных вирусоспецифических ДНК фрагментов.

В клещах, собранных в Астраханской области, Карелии и Ставропольском крае обнаружены геномные маркеры вирусов семейств Flaviviridae, Phenuiviridae и Nairoviridae.

В клещах Ixodes, собранных в Астраханской области, Карелии и Ставропольском крае, были обнаружены генетические маркеры вирусов, ранее не описанных для России. Природные очаги клещевых инфекций проявляют тенденцию к расширению ареала, в связи с чем, большую актуальность приобретают исследования по выявлению новых вирусов, экологически связанных с иксодовыми клещами.
