Adiponectin in the mammalian host influences ticks' acquisition of the Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia. Adiponectin in the mammalian host influences ticks' acquisition of the Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia

To understand the global gene expression profile at the tick bite site of adiponectin wildtype and knockout mice Overall design: We utilized RNA-seq to compare the transcriptome of adiponectin wildtype and knockout murine skin during tick feeding
