Transmission risk of two chikungunya lineages by invasive mosquito vectors from Florida and the Dominican Republic. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Between 2014 and 2016 more than 3,800 imported human cases of chikungunya fever in Florida highlight the high risk for local transmission. To examine the potential for sustained local transmission of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) in Florida we tested whether

Loss of cytoplasmic incompatibility in Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti under field conditions

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
Wolbachia bacteria are now being introduced into Aedes aegypti mosquito populations for dengue control. When Wolbachia infections are at a high frequency, they influence the local transmission of dengue by direct virus blocking as well as deleterious ...

Mapping the global potential distributions of two arboviral vectors Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus under changing climate

PLoS ONE, 2018
Background Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus are the primary vectors that transmit several arboviral diseases, including dengue, chikungunya, and Zika. The world is presently experiencing a series of outbreaks of these diseases, so, we still require to ...

“Molecular Docking and Dynamic Studies of Amide Derivatives from Cinnamic Acid with Potential Anti‐Dengue Virus Activity”

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
A library of easily synthesizable CAPE analogs was screened in silico against the dengue virus envelope protein. Compound LQM778 showed stable binding and promising inhibitory potential. This study highlights LQM778 as a candidate for future in vitro validation and structural optimization toward accessible antiviral agents against dengue.

Effects of the Environmental Temperature on Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus Mosquitoes: A Review

Insects, 2018
The temperature of the environment is one of the most important abiotic factors affecting the life of insects. As poikilotherms, their body temperature is not constant, and they rely on various strategies to minimize the risk of thermal stress. They have
