2002 review
Hemolymph proteins in ticks
[Review of ]. JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 48(3), 269–278.
TL;DR:
Hemolymph protein most studied in ticks has been vitellogenin (Vg), which is synthesized by the tick fat body after female adults obtain a blood meal, is released into the hemolymph and is absorbed by developing oocytes as Vn.

2002 journal article
Tissue distribution and characterization of predominant hemolymph carrier proteins from Dermacentor variabilis and Ornithodoros parkeri
JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 48(2), 161–170.
author keywords: Acari; Ixodidae; Argasidae; American dog tick; Dermacentor variabilis; Ornithodoros parkeri; heme; carrier protein; storage protein
TL;DR:
The tissue distribution of the predominant hemolymph protein found throughout tick development was examined in the hard tick, Dermacentor variabilis, and in the soft tick, Ornithodoros parkeri, indicating a difference in the expression and/or sequestration of CP during adult development.

2001 journal article
Developmental profile, isolation, and biochemical characterization of a novel lipoglycoheme-carrier protein from the American dog tick, Dermacentor variabilis (Acari : Ixodidae) and observations on a similar protein in the soft tick, Ornithodoros parkeri (Acari : Argasidae)
INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, 31(4-5), 299–311.
author keywords: Acari; Ixodidae; Argasidae; carrier protein; artemocyanin
MeSH headings : Acari / chemistry; Acari / growth & development; Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Carbohydrates / analysis; Dermacentor / chemistry; Dermacentor / growth & development; Dogs; Female; Glycoproteins; Heme / analysis; Hemeproteins; Hemolymph / chemistry; Lipids / analysis; Male; Molecular Sequence Data
TL;DR:
Although a protein of analogous size was not found in the soft tick, Ornithodoros parkeri Cooley, a high molecular weight protein is the predominant plasma protein in both unfed and fed male and female adults of that species as determined by native-PAGE.
