Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a dangerous neuroinfection affecting thousands annually. This review covers TBEV epidemiology, ecology, pathogenesis, control, and related flaviviruses, including vaccine development.

Area of Science:

  • Neurovirology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a significant neuroinfection in Europe and Asia, caused by tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV).
  • Approximately 11,000 human cases occur annually, predominantly in Russia.
  • TBEV infections present diverse clinical manifestations, ranging from asymptomatic cases to severe encephalitis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the epidemiology, ecology, pathogenesis, and control strategies for TBE.
  • To explore factors influencing TBE incidence and distribution.
  • To discuss variations in clinical presentations and compare TBEV with related tick-borne flaviviruses.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of epidemiological, ecological, and clinical data on TBEV and related viruses.

  • Analysis of factors affecting disease incidence, distribution, and clinical outcomes.
  • Examination of historical and current vaccination approaches and future vaccine development trends.

    • Main Results:

    • TBEV is a major cause of neuroinfection with varied clinical outcomes.
    • Related flaviviruses like Louping ill, Langat, Powassan, Omsk hemorrhagic fever, and Kyasanur forest disease viruses share epidemiological links but exhibit different disease profiles.
    • Vaccination history and modern vaccine development for TBE are discussed.

    Conclusions:

    • Understanding TBEV's complex epidemiology and pathogenesis is crucial for effective control.
    • Comparative analysis with related flaviviruses provides insights into viral evolution and disease specificity.
    • Ongoing vaccine development is essential for managing TBE and related tick-borne viral diseases.
