Lights, camera, and action : vertebrate skin sets the stage for immune cell interaction with arthropod-vectored pathogens
Despite increasing studies targeted at host-pathogen interactions, vector-borne diseases remain one of the largest economic health burdens worldwide. Such diseases are vectored by hematophagous arthropods that deposit pathogens into the vertebrate host’s skin during a blood meal. These pathogens spe...
