Abstract. Sarcoptic mange, caused by the parasitic mite Sarcoptes scabiei, causes a substantive burden of disease to humans, domestic animals and wildlife, globally.There are many effects of S. scabiei infection, culminating in the disease which hosts suffer. However, major knowledge gaps remain on the pathogenic impacts of this infection.
Sarcoptic mange, also known as canine scabies, is a highly contagious infestation of Sarcoptes scabiei var. canis, a burrowing mite. The canine sarcoptic mite can also infest cats, pigs, horses, sheep, and various other species.
In animals, S. scabiei infestation (sarcoptic mange) results in inflammatory and adaptive immune responses relatively late in the infection (4–6 weeks after initial contact with mite), in contrast to related psoroptic mange where inflammatory responses are seen almost immediately after mite infestation.
In humans, individuals who are likely to contract this disease include members of the public in close contact with wildlife (e.g. hunters, trappers), conservation oficers, and biologists. Symptoms in people are localized to the skin and include marked itching, reddening, and rash.
