Editor’s summary
This study demonstrates that Ixodes scapularis saliva inhibits Toll-like (TLR) and Nod-like receptor (NLR) induced-inflammatory cytokine secretion by mouse and human immune cells. I. scapularis saliva also mitigates the cytokine response by macrophages during challenge with Anaplasma phagocytophilum. Image: Anaplasma phagocytophilum engulfed by macrophages [membranes (green), A. phagocytophilum (red), and nuclei (blue)]. Magnification is 600x4=2400.
